[Verse 1]

Sat behind the desk of my 9 to 5

What a time to be alive

I'm suited up, clean, shirt, tie

Shoes buff, when’s my time to shine?

Butt is numb, **** it, so's the mind

I don't mind if I don’t make the scene

Got a daytime job, I'm doing alright

But that clock's ticking; time's tight

Picture me laying on my deathbed, ****, that light's bright, it goes white

Aim a camera shoot me in the back, click, call it Hindsight; my plight

Thinking what might have been

Why didn't I try hard? (****)

But it's hard luck, coulda been great

You could still do it

Na it's too late

I Deliberate like a judge and jury, until my brain aches from

Punchin’ myself, call me Tyson Fury; ******* head bake

So forget the war going on outside, there’s a civil war going on in my mind

It gives me Sum' ta think about

I’m packing dread, I'd rather be armed with a USP instead

Am I mature enough to be hated, teased, take anything that's said on a Twitter feed, Facebook post or a Reddit thread?

Time to get confident, stupid

Got the ability, use it

If one more person, including myself, tells me my chances are remote; ya gonna get muted


[Hook]

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Yeah, ya supposed ta

If I could I'd unfriend me

I’m my own worst enemy

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Only I can stop me

If I could I'd unfriend me

I'm my own worst enemy


[Verse 2]

And I don't even wanna be famous; nah

I don't even care if you know what my name is; aww

But if ya did though, I think I'd be humble

The only way I'm going over the top, is if I'm being thrown out of the royal rumble, I'm in trouble, I think I need a body double

As I do like privacy

Rarely seen out and about, I'd be like Banksy

So I'm happy to stand out from the crowd

8 figures in the bank account, shame the decimal place is out

But I'm not expecting to get paid

If I went to an awards show, have a few beers, I'll be back in the office the next day

Why?

Cuz I'm down to earth like gravity. Fab

**** it, I'll probably start a charity

**** it, donate half my salary

Cermoniously plant a tree, (huh)

But in reality

It would be wicked to have a wiki page

It would be good to get some plays

Recognition of my work, some free stuff, a few fans, praise, a raise

Two birthdays and some holidays in the sun, so I can catch some rays

That'll be the day, yeah

That'll be the day


[Hook]

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Yeah, ya supposed ta

If I could I'd unfriend me

I'm my own worst enemy

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Only I can stop me

If I could I'd unfriend me

I'm my own worst enemy

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Yeah, ya supposed ta

If I could I'd unfriend me

I'm my own worst enemy

They say keep your friends close, but your enemies closer

Only I can stop me

If I could I'd unfriend me

I'm my own worst enemy


[Verse 3]

That **** cray

Anyone can make a track on a laptop, upload it and press play

Have it streaming to the masses the next day

Get this in your ear, bud; this is the new age

Check my contents, are we on the same page?

Deal or no deal, pick up your phone, we're all in the same place

Add this to your playlist

Relax, enjoy this, don't be a hater

Time to take stock, cuz I'm the liquidator

I just want to be cooler than AC Slater, sat in an igloo with Pingu and a slushee maker

But do you know what would be the icing on the cake? (yeah)

When my music makes you sit up and take notes, like The Undertaker, reporting for a local paper

Living life in the slow lane, but I'll still under take ya (car skid)

Can you feel my energy?

I'm a monster, a bull in a china shop, yeah relentless with it

Believe me, this ain't no storm in a teacup

But try and keep up

Because when I get in my flying saucer

You're gonna feel the force

37 million horses

Coming right for ya

When I check the ignition

Space oddity playing on infinite loop

Give the star man a high five, as I do fly by, knocking off his arm of as I hit him

Can you see the speed that I'm hitting?

Darting across the sky, feel the power

I'm not putting on the breaks like an intermission

I'm just sat here wondering if this **** is AR, VR, real life or Science Fiction?

Either way I'm getting out of this world, I'm going out with a boom

I won't give up, I gotta make the moon

Even if I'm gassed and running on fumes; cuz I'm a man on a mission
