proper (usa) - potential lyrics

[verse 1]
i think i realized there was a change
when bartees became a household name
someone i regarded as a peer
shot off overnight into the stratosphere
and that’s when it really hit me
been grinding all these years
for something i don’t want to be
‘cos i’m not built like him
i’m just not fit to lead a team

[pre+chorus]
but i’ve been making more and more famous friends
but i don’t know where banter ends
or where business begins

[chorus]
am i in too deep?
‘cos it’s too late to changе the lane that i’m in now
if peoplе depend on me
and i’m all too sure that i will let you down
once a f+ck up, always a f+ck up
my foot stays parked comfortably in my mouth
they say i got too much potential
we’ve come too far for me to waste it now
[verse 2]
the ground beneath me shifted more
after europe and the los camp’ tour
fan mail lines out the door
fans saying they’ve never felt seen before
and i’m like: “not me, not me”
just turn back now, there’s only acrimony ahead
you’ll see, you’ll see
a façade of a front man
i’m sorry, you’ve been misled

[pre+chorus]
but i’ve been making more and more famous friends
but i don’t know where banter ends
or where business begins

[chorus]
am i in too deep?
‘cos it’s too late to change the lane that i’m in now
if people depend on me
and i’m all too sure that i will let you down
once a f+ck up, always a f+ck up
my foot stays parked comfortably in my mouth
they say i got too much potential
we’ve come too far for me to waste it now
[bridge]
‘cos photo ops and sl!ck marketing
would be the death of me
i don’t wanna be on tmz
trading infamy for paparazzi
but am i willing to give it all up
to do what i love?
is it the only way, the only trade off?
take a dive just for the pay off?

[outro]
what if we made it and i go the way of mr. west?
would money change me or just bring up a version of myself i suppressed?
don’t want a wiki tab marked “controversies”
don’t want to fail and hurt my fans
the way my idol hurt me
