stuart clark - ashes lyrics

[verse 1]
yeah
i hate the fact that i don’t know who i am
cause when i’m looking in the mirror, i don’t know that man
or maybe it’s a boy, honestly i wouldn’t know
cause n0body’s ever shown me what it means to be grown
so i’m sittin here, tryna put together my puzzle
but i don’t got a reference for it, so i’m having some trouble
how am i supposed to know how to connect all of the pieces
when all they ever tell me to do is just talk to jesus?
should i start at the center or piece together the edge?
should i separate the colors, all the greens and the reds?
i’m sorry, but this life thing has got me confused
do i do it for myself, for the art, or for the views?
i could fail for ten years and still check every box
but will i make it that long if no one’s hearing my thoughts?
it’s not like i need all the accolades and praise
but i just want some people to respect my name
but what do i have to offer that could make that a reality
when i’m the one who’s been criticizing and doubting me?
if i can win myself then i can probably make it
as long as i stay honest and i don’t try to go fake it
but that’s pretty hard to do when you don’t like who you are
and you wanna refresh, reset, and restart
so tell me would i rise from the ashes on the ground
if i lit my life up and i burned it all down?

[verse 2]
yeah
i hate the fact that i don’t know who i am
cause i used to want to have the whole world in my hand
but the more than i thinkin’ about it, the less i’m sure
if i want to look back and say my life was a blur
would it be so full, or would it be too fast?
no i wanna slow down and reconsider my path
cause i been on the same one for the last five years
but in truth, the road ahead isn’t all that clear
cause i used to see a city, but now i’m just in a fog
and i’m wandering and wondering just what went wrong
i used to skip meals so that i could make beats
now i’m struggling to make a single melody a week
so if i quit it all, what would i do then?
would i find a new home for my heart and my head?
would i get to live a life overflowing with peace?
would i wake up every day with a soul that felt free?
cause these the gifts that i don’t got right now
yeah my poetry of thought is all blocked right now
and i know i got some habits i should stop right now
but i don’t know what’s sittin’ on the top spot right now, yeah
so many things are battling for my heart
makes me wanna refresh, reset, and restart
so tell me would i rise from the ashes on the ground
if i lit my life up and i burned it all down?
