i'm having a hard time being myself

Hey, being optimistic is insane When everybody's got a taste of fame Will I get by on alcohol and praying In May traded mom and pop for East LA Packed me up and sent me on my way But when we talk I know they wished I stayed I'm having a hard time being myself All of the time All of the time And everyone asks me if I'm doing well But I just been lying I just been lying Some people make it look so easy I'm not made for TV I'm completely lost All of the time All of the time Hey, I'm tired of people telling me to wait Pretending that I'm younger than my age And linking up with suits and what's-her-name It's safe, safe to say that I feel out of place I meet someone new and change my face Going back on promises I made I'm having a hard time being myself All of the time All of the time And everyone asks me if I'm doing well But I just been lying I just been lying Some people make it look so easy I'm not made for TV I'm completely lost All of the time All of the time Got a lot on my mind With myself, me and I Am I holding on? Am I just lying? Got a lot on my mind With myself, me and I And I'm tired as f*ck I can't lie I'm having a hard time being myself All of the time All of the time And everyone asks me if I'm doing well But I just been lying I just been lying Some people make it look so easy I'm not made for TV I'm completely lost All of the time All of the time
