Have you heard a more obnoxious word than one's expression of their own self-worth?
You're not the last but you’re not the first to do a thing
A hubris that's so deeply laid, it’s hard to get out of your own fucking way
You say you’re “proud” but you’re way too loud and tiring
My futility belies humility
There’s something driving me
My own divinity
Superiority
It’s what was meant to be...
Right
My futility belies humility
There’s something driving me
My own divinity
Superiority
It’s what was meant to be
A burning need to be...
Right or wrong
I’m right, you’re wrong
How the hell can you get through your day and believe a single fucking word you say
Everything’s great! as you craft your self-made myth
The lines you spew to further craft your ruse separate you from the one’s who know your truth
Just relax and try to be your goddamn self
My futility belies humility
There’s something driving me
My own divinity
Superiority
It’s what was meant to be
Unkind
My futility belies humility
There’s something driving me
My own divinity
Superiority
It’s what was meant to be
A burning need to be right
Have you heard a more obnoxious word than one's expression of their own self-worth?
You're not the last but you’re not the first to do a thing
A hubris that is so deeply laid, it’s hard to get out of your own fucking way
Myopic view so sadly askew no explanation can change your view
I’m right, you’re wrong...

How to stay true to and to do what you do
In a world built on Pride, Greed and Shame?
You lift up your chin and you don’t take their bait
And accept that we all are to blame
Stay humble and stand up when your face down in it
Stay humble when you’ve got it right
Don’t stumble when faced with this life’s toughest moments
Stay humble to stay in the fight
You’ll stand on the edge and peek over the ledge
This life’s a relentless pursuit
How you hold up and what you’re made of
Is determined by how you stay true
Stay humble and stand up when your face down in it
Stay humble when you’ve got it right
Don’t stumble when faced with this life’s toughest moments
Stay humble to stay in the fight
Fight
A perfect wife and an ideal home
And just a fight away from dying alone
Your dream job with cash to spend
Just one mistake from a tragic end
Be humble
Free of your pride
Let your envy die
Hate can be denied
Look in to be alive
Thrive
Trust in yourself to protect sense of self disregard the base instinct to shame
We’re all insecure lashing out with our fears and we’ve all got an ego to tame
Times running out make amends with yourself
Years are passing you by in a blink
Don’t waste all that time propping up phony lies
Don’t worry what others may think
Stay humble and stand up when your face down in it
Stay humble when you’ve got it right
Don’t stumble when faced with this life’s toughest moments
Stay humble to stay in the fight
Stay humble and stand up when your face down in it
Stay humble when you’ve got it right
Don’t stumble when faced with this life’s toughest moments
Stay humble to stay in the fight
Fight
Trust in yourself to protect sense of self disregard the base instinct to shame
We’re all insecure lashing out with our fears and we’ve all got an ego to tame
