There is room for complication

There's an air of expectation for life

There's a need for education

There is faith and contradiction in life

I am proud but so frustrated

I am overcomplicated in life

I am loud but understated

And I feel we're overrated in life

And it was only my pride

And I was lonely inside

And I know how low you choose to go

Or how it shows you don't grow

No you're slow to learn

There were years when I was loaded

There were tears when I imploded inside

You were part of every pleasure

I am told your golden treasure is pride

I refrain from taking conviction

I take the blame for all the suspicion and lies

I have changed my explanation

I am ruled by superstition all my life

And it was only my pride

And I was lonely inside
