Criteria - Stranger (feat. Hermes Freeman) Lyrics




Ya I've been a stranger
Ya I've been a fool
Caught up in my anger
Couldn't keep my cool
Hide from every situation when I'm feeling anxious
Wouldn't take responsibility when I was more capable than I knew
I've been an anchor to myself and others
Weighing all our shoulders down
Was to afraid I couldn't make a change
Self imposed limitations ain't okay when you inspire others around

Give me a short cut
Short cut
Short cut
Yo yo where'd I put my crutches
Probably hid them when my victims hit the stage to take the show
Everybody wants to say they tried to be the bigger person
Well
Actions speak louder
I closed the curtains on them
I know for certain somethings hurting
Told myself that wasn't worth it to work on
A permanent blur caused by chirping the birds on when they gassed up my pride
Complacent to the label that they gave me when they chose my side
Savage
They took flight
Something didn't look right
From both positions so I went and threw a rock
I broke the pigeons wings
Studied the structure hoping to compose myself a pair
To fly away in moments when I'm self aware

I've been a stranger
Ya I've been a fool
Caught up in my anger
Couldn't keep my cool
Hide from every situation when I'm feeling anxious
Wouldn't talk responsibility when I was more capable than I knew
I've been an anchor to myself and others
Weighing all our shoulders down
Was too afraid I couldn't make a change
Self imposed limitations ain't okay when you inspire others around

Listen more
Don't act like you've got it all figured out
Pacing around finishing sentences like "ya I get it, how pathetic"
How you let yourself believe you know it all, but don't acknowledge
That there's always more to learn
You're hindering your growth for certain
Hope it's worth it
Notice you're always first to throw a third persons perspective at somebody
When they're circling themselves
Now
Put yourself in that position
Understand there's always little details you don't consider
Sit down, be humble
You wonder where your problems come from but they're coming from your wondering
Unhealthy obsession with getting better
You'll never improve
Too distracted to relax and take in the moment
Your only problem is you're so lost thinking about why you're lost
A problem you created from a facade
Your imagination is your own worst enemy
Led to believe you're past saving
Shit
It's mad shame when they beg me to say who I'm explaining
Unaware I'm talking in the mirror to get passed phases

I've been a stranger
I've been a fool
Caught up in my anger
Couldn't keep my cool
Hide from every situation when I'm feeling anxious
Wouldn't take responsibility when I was more capable than I knew
I've been an anchor to myself and others
Weighing all our shoulders down
Was too afraid I couldn't make a change
Self imposed limitations ain't okay when you inspire others around
