[Intro: Caleb Shomo, HARDY]

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone

When I get back onto my feet?

Tomorrow, I'm gonna make changes

'Cause today I can barely speak

Hit 'em with the riff

Woo


[Verse 1: Caleb Shomo]

I been burned by it, concerned 'bout it

I can't stay my hand

The side effects of it have been soul crushin'

This wasn't part of my plan


[Pre-Chorus: HARDY]

I don't wanna suffer

Trying to lie and I try to recover

But I'm back in the gutter

Banking on the same things


[Chorus: Caleb Shomo]

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone

When I get back onto my feet?

Tomorrow, I'm gonna make changes

'Cause today I can barely speak

I know how to pull myself out

And it's gonna hurt like hell to set myself free

Just say it out loud, today's the day I stop fucking around

And be the better me

(And be the better me, oh)


[Verse 2: HARDY]

I'm so done with it, and I'll run with it

For as long as I can

I'm shutting down with one foot in the ground

And I got no confidence left


[Pre-Chorus: Caleb Shomo]

Don't need one another

Testify that it's time to recover

I won't die in the gutter

Cold, alone and unseen


[Chorus: HARDY]

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone

When I get back onto my feet?

Tomorrow, I'm gonna make changes

'Cause today I can barely speak

I know how to pull myself out

And it's gonna hurt like hell to set myself free

Just say it out loud, today's the day I stop fucking around

And be the better me, woo

[Breakdown: Caleb Shomo, HARDY]

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone? (I was gonna be someone)

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone? (Said I was gonna be someone)


[Chorus: Caleb Shomo & HARDY]

How many times have I said I was gonna be someone

When I get back onto my feet?

Tomorrow, I'm gonna make changes

'Cause today I can barely speak

I know how to pull myself out

And it's gonna hurt like hell to set myself free

Just say it out loud, today's the day I stop fucking around

And be the better me


[Outro: Caleb Shomo]

Stop fucking around

And be the better me

Stop fucking around

And be the better me
