[Intro] Db* [Verse 1]
Ab
 Welcome, welcome

         Gbdim
Make yourself at home and take a seat

             Db/F
I'll be your host for the next hour

          Dbm/E
So get as comfy as can be

           Ab/Eb
I'll do my best to tell you this story

           Bb
I mean, it is a story about me

      Dbdim
'Bout how I came up, then fell down

    A7
And then, I found peace

           Ab                        Gbdim
To set the scene, I arrived age seventeen
I didn't know nothin'
             Db
Why can't my ears open?

              Dbm
Took it in, I was always listening

           Ab/Eb       Ab
I told the world who I was

             Bb7
Fast forward two years, two albums out

  Dbdim
I wish I didn't say so much

A7
But I can't take it back now (No)

    Ab                                Gbdim
So, growing up in public wasn't great, nah

  Db                       Dbm
I wouldn't ever trade it in for a life lesson, saying

     Ab
"The high is the high, and the lows are the lows."

Dm            Dbdim                                A7
    Well, I'd rather have these streams then have a boring life, you know?

     Ab                                  Gbdim
And, even in my darkest hour, I remember why I'm here

                      Db/F                                    Dbm
Never said what I was truly feeling til the way the most, for many years

          Ab                                  Bb
But I say when life changes, you pipe up, you sit down

                         Dbdim
Speak to someone you can spend the time with

    A7                               Ab
Um, I don't know, that's what I did (Ah)
[Chorus]
                    Db
The therapist knows who I really am

     Eb              Bbdim           Ab
They know me just as well as someone can

        Gdim           Fm              Eb         Bb7 Eb
There's nothing in the world they're expecting of me

                Ab
I'm simply here to speak

                    Db
And nothing can surprise me now

  Eb            Ebdim      Ab
I turn up and I let it all out

        Gdim          Fm              Eb         Bb/D   Eb
There's no one in the world that they need me to be

                      Ab
So I'll be myself and we'll see (Ah)
[Verse 2]
             Gbdim
2023 and I'm goin' in

                   Db                        Dbm
I check myself in age, twenty-two, and no, I don't regret a thing

            Ab/Eb                             Bb                 Db
I wanna say thank you to my family for always putting up with things

      Dbm                                  Eb7
And a big shout-out to Steve and Linda for taking me under their wing

           Ab                         Gbm
And takin' time, and the same goes to Damian

                                          Db
Who pulled me out the grave and showed me how to live this life

        Dbm
And whatever comes my way

     Ab                                    Bb
I'll practice everyday, just give me sixty minutes

                              Dbm
Once a week, in a low, bitter space

                          A
Soon, I'll be in a better place
Watch this
Ab
I'm not sayin' it's the only way

    Gbdim
But sure, I couldn't do it on my own

Bbm
New year, new me, yeah, yeah

     Dbm
This time I'm really in the zone

Ab/Eb                                          Bb
Everyone's just searchin' for someone to be in love with

                              Dbm
And tryna find the thing they love to do

                                A7
That could also maybe bring the bread in

                Ab                                Gbdim
Everybody has a stage these days anyone can entertain

                     Db/F            Dbm/E
We all need a bit of validation, and that's okay

             Ab
All I really want is to feel a peace, to find my place

Dm  D                  Dbm6
Hey, maybe it's just a endless search

                   Dbm
Alone here on this earth, and if so, that's okay (Ah)
[Outro]
Ab             Db
 I wouldn't be here now if I failed

   Eb               Ebdim      Ab
To take the time to care for myself

  Gm                 Fm           Eb                 Bb/D    Eb
I never thought that things would get as bad as they were

               Ab
I recharged and returned

                      Db
And if you're sick of goin' through Hell

     Eb                  Cdim           Ab
Just know that I've been right there as well

   C         Fm         Eb          Bb/D  Eb
