ettrick shepherd - ride the waves lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m tryna ride the waves, take a look inside my brain
i kinda pray that you find out why it’s so hard for me to hide my pain
cos i’m an artist, right? but i don’t really find it hard to write
there’s a h-ll of a lot i can say that i jot on a page and it sparked alight
i don’t need money but there are dollars to make
and greed can be hard to fight
i think my mind might be locked in a cage
tryna carve a path but can’t carve it right
i reckon it’s more than safe to say
that in my attempt to take the reigns
all that i really did was make mistakes
that left me restrained in a chain in pain
it was a wake-up call, i was asleep in my own world
i shoulda stayed awake
had so much friction with those around me and
didn’t notice until i grazed my face
one thing that i wanted to ask? do you think that i wanted my past?
my question is this – do you reckon i requested a lisp?
i knew it was gonna be hard
had to accept it though, had to just adjust and let it go
difficult times will rise again so i’ll ride the waves to a new episode

[chorus]
i’m done with taking control, i’ma just ride the waves
revolve around the world and bite the bullet for my mistakes
no life is perfect, i’ma live mine in a different kind of way
just lie and wait ’til i find that state of mind one day

[post-chorus]
got caught in a rip, you can call it a trip
either way, it happened so it is what it is

[verse 2]
you know what sucks? you know what’s unfortunate?
when i have all i could ever want, all i want is more of it
cos i see other people who have more of it so i want all of it
desperate to find love, maybe it would’ve come by now
if i had never sought the sh-t
i tried to step right it was just not working
but a wise man told me the secret to find is to stop searching
trying to accept that i have no control over the universe
it’ll just do its thing and sometimes what it will do will hurt
it’s hard to be upbeat when i never really seemed to succeed
and people act like they can judge me, it’s bound to end ugly
i’m glad that i found a calling, it’s enough, i ain’t out for more sh-t
went from being not content to having something that i’m proud to fall with
i’m allowed to fall, there’s absolutely no doubt i’m flawed
some people tumble when they just left the ground floor with no couch support
i’m a basket case and a half, you probably never had guessed
perfect doesn’t exist but i have potential and won’t settle for less
