I am the guy
Who reads off my inner monologue
I am the dude
Who swallows all my platitudes
I am the fool
Who got caught n*** in the swimming pool

I’m just trying I’m just trying

I I I
Gotta be halfway zen
I think i can see the end
I I I’m
Sure this is the path
I’ve just got to check the math

I’m the skeptic
Who argues from my vanity
I’m not the skeptic
Who probes from curiosity

I’m just trying i’m just trying

I I I
Gotta be halfway zen
I think i can see the end
I I I
Can see the light
I knew it’d be this bright
I I I
Followed the rules
I used the right tools
I I I
Gotta be halfway zen
I know it’s just around the bend
