I was protecting myself
What's the big deal
It was just a white lie
I call it self help
And it always works
About half of the time
And it's all a part of my big plan
To fix myself because I'm a big man
I'm the biggest optimist
But all the other times
I could never be elated
Why am I stuck in this cycle
I didn't sign up for this
I didn't sign up for this
And it's all a part of my big plan
To fix myself because I'm a big man
If you play your cards right
And get a good version of me tonight
And nothing goes wrong
Don't forget what I said all those times
There's something for you to remember
I didn't forget
What we had said all those times ago
