I say there ain't nothin' wrong with tryin' to be great
I pray everybody gets to find a way
We can fight about expectations
Or spread the wings and get high like a spaceship
But I was only tryin' to be great
And even though it seem like nobody relates
I got a smile on my face when I talk to angels
I'm not afraid of your greatness, I'm grateful
I gotta say I feel great today
The sunshine sharp like a razorblade
It cuts through the negative space
And there ain't no shame in the shade that was made
When you light the flame and brighten up the mundane
Got you on the front page of my systems update
I'm tryin' to get my heel on the breaks
Let me stay with you because it feels kinda great
At the least, you can keep me on the wait list
I stay patient, no complaints
I'm gonna stay creative until I get cremated
Even then y'all can mix my ashes up in the paint
This ain't no mistake, I'm familiar with greatness
I love it, I wanna stand close enough to taste it
Nothing less than adjacent
Save me a place at your next celebration
I say there ain't nothin' wrong with tryin' to be great
I pray everybody gets to find a way
We can fight about expectations
Or spread the wings and get high like a spaceship
But I was only tryin' to be great
And even though it seem like nobody relates
I got a smile on my face when I talk to angels
I'm not afraid of your greatness, I'm grateful
I used to walk through the rainstorm
Just so I could call you from a pay phone
I would hold the umbrella over your halo
Boilin' up a pot full of gold at end of the rainbow
We're just one staple away from unstable
Try to put some elasticity in the queso
Can you spare a little change in the tone?
It's engraved in stone, we're just lookin' for a way home
Pop the monitor off your ankle
Computer in your pocket, it's all the same though
The planet is a prison and we stuck till we die or escape
So try not to act like an a-hole
I'm thankful, embrace the time tables
Naturally aged, the flavor, dried mango
Ain't no space for excuses or scapegoats
Yeah, I guess if you say so
I say there ain't nothin' wrong with tryin' to be great
I pray everybody gets to find a way
We can fight about expectations
Or spread the wings and get high like a spaceship
But I was only tryin' to be great
And even though it seem like nobody relates
I got a smile on my face when I talk to angels
I'm not afraid of your greatness, I'm grateful
It's just you and I, ain't nobody else, player
I mean, aside from all the spectators
Let's take a ride on the elevator
Go outside and tell your neighbors
I felt like I fell face first
Realize a hater ain't nothin' but a self hater
She said, "Hell's full of saviors"
There's nothin' left to say, I'll smell ya later
Let's be grateful, we could be greater
You could be greater, I could be greater
Let's be grateful, we could be greater
You could be greater, I could be greater
