barry ii - unbuild the statue of me lyrics

verse one

yeah
trouble with the trolley aye
uh
yeah

put me up on that pedestal
incredible
give me expectations that i can’t fulfil
professional
at letting down
the people i care about
voted the most likely to succeed
once in high school and once after my degree
but where am i?
jobless and trynna goat these
poor tiktok users into these dope beats
i made myself, my bedroom, the curtains closed please
ain’t it funny when everybody believes in you
you give up
cause trying is what the weak’ll do
don’t live up
to the person that you were destined too
even when i sleep
i’m wasting time that the rest of you
wouldn’t waste
i’m thinking this ain’t my sp+ce
i’m thinking of moving mountains
mole hills get in the way
all the things that i dream about
‘commplishing in the evening now
waking up in the morning
and can’t be bothered to leave the house
eating out
instead of just home cooking
gotta be for the worst
but only if no ones looking
my mum believes in me
dad thinks i have been leadin’ these
extravagantly, exceedingly
lavishly awesome evenings, see
i’m usually in my apartment
cooped up but never starting it
list of my ‘goals and wants’
if it ever gets any longer
i’m usually not a part of it
beautifully making excuses because of it
but f+ck it
i guess its time to make a start on it
interlude

unbuild the statue of me x16

verse two

people are always asking
if you could go back and have an
informed chat and be laughing with
a younger version of yourself
would you provide him with help
and what wisdom would you wanna share
i always answer the same
i would not be there
my younger self, figured it out as well
so if the future me
is thinking of visiting
well stay as far away
i don’t need your advice
honestly i’m doing fine
i got myself in this mess
so out this hole i will climb
i’ve got time
i’ve got everything i could ever need
all of my friends and my family
so tell me you hate the album
tell me you hate the book
tell me you won’t get back
all the time that i went and took
tell me my face is stupid
and tell me to cut my hair
tell me that i’m a loser
and tell me that no one cares
all that i’ve ever wanted is for somebody to know that i’m here
but you should
unbuild the statue of me
unbuild the statue of me
outro

you give me sweet loving
oh you give me sweet loving
you give me sweet loving
oh you give me sweet loving
you give me sweet loving
oh you give me sweet loving
you give me sweet loving
oh you give me sweet loving
