[Verse 1]

Scrolling through my phone, tryna find me

Mentally at war, tryna find peace

Envy in my heart and it’s slime green

Wishing that my life was like IG, yeah

But that’s just asking for vast disappointment

Compare your life through others eyes, and you fast to disown it

Take some time, raise your wine, just bask in the moment

Appreciation for yourself is the magic component

And baby, most of these people smiling for cameras are broken

Overdosing, and posing, hoping someone will notice

No disrespect, but I can bet that you blessed and don’t know it

All that stress just to mess with these niggas emojis

Taking pictures but can’t take what you see in the mirror (Ah)

Adding filters only makes insecurities clearer (Ah)

Don’t compromise for them eyes that don’t know you or love you

‘Cause all them likes won’t mean shit when you actually in trouble


[Chorus]

You, you aren’t the only one

Who feels like they’re lost inside

You aren’t the only one

Who feels like they lost a fight

You aren’t the only one

Who can’t seem to realize

That there's more to life

When you look inside your


[Verse 2]

Self love, well ain’t that what they preaching of?

But if I tell you that I’m perfect, you think I’m reaching huh?

I thank God my mind is wise and my skin is tough

'Cause if cared about your opinion, I wouldn’t sleep enough

Never keep a grudge (Ah)

Try and speak with love (Ah)

Keep my spirits high

Stay from sneaky fucks

And when things begin to change like every season does

The peace inside of my heart remains, it don’t even budge

'cause I know

Materialism is prison

People can’t make me happy

Keep negativity distant

Don't brag about what you doing

Don’t talk as much as you listen

And when these niggas start bitchin’, tell ‘em you need some space

Ha, right to their face

I don’t run my mouth to others, I just run my own race

I surround myself with brothers who understand that I’m great

I don’t waste time trying to hide it

I’m fucking amazing

'Cause you aren’t the only one

That don’t feel like holding on

You aren’t the only, only, only, only


[Chorus]

You, you aren’t the only one

Who feels like they’re lost inside

You aren’t the only one

Who feels like they lost a fight

You aren’t the only one

Who can’t seem to realize

That there's more to life

When you look inside your


[Outro]

Self, self, self

Ah yeah, yeah

Self, self, self

Can't seem to realize

Self, self, self

Can't seem to realize

That there's more to life

When you look inside yourself

Can't seem to realize

Can't seem to realize
