Bring My Own Shovel
Bring My Own Shovel

V1.
I’m on a journey of self discovery
Searching for a guy named Me
Together we began to solve the riddle
I’m more than a chameleon in a bag of skittles
Bound by unrealistic expectation
Just another awkward situation
It took a while but I finally see
Gotta know who I am to be who I want to be
Chorus
Buried by a past that calls out to me
Stop living this life on repeat
Life should be lived in anticipation
Gonna take some deep self examination
Gotta dig deeper than this circus
Figure out what’s going on below the surface
It’s time to get real and down on the level
Dig my way out and I’ll bring my own shovel.
V2.
So I’m writing this brand new rendition
It’s my new dreams and my own ambitions
Mapping what’s ahead and crossing borders
Climbing mountains and moving forward
Life all happens in the blink of an eye
Can’t live this life traveling stand by
I believe that time is on my side
For the good hard work of being alive.
Chorus
Buried by a past that calls out to me
Stop living this life on repeat
Life should be lived in anticipation
Gonna take some deep self examination
Gotta dig deeper than this circus
Figure out what’s going on below the surface
It’s time to get real and down on the level
Dig my way out and I’ll bring my own shovel
