Don't you be following me
Into eternity
I don't know where this goes
Why are you standing so close
It ain't no ego thing
It's not that I'm too scared to compete
It's just that, you see, I believe
I got here fraudulently

Yes, I am a changed man
Yeah, I have come from behind
For years I have lingered down low
For years I've resented the world
Couldn't square up my life
Got hooked on wading in mud
Habits I've picked up all that time
Have stuck and grown I'm covered in grime


Why are you looking at me
So fucking suspiciously
yes I was aiming so low
None of it's no business of yours
You may have caught residual filth
From last night's sleeze factory
I still feel undeserved
I know of all the muck and the dirt
sincerely happy and surprised
With all the miracles out of life
So maybe it lies with me
And my inflamed subjectivity
