 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

Sick of talking and expecting you to measure up 
I don't got the time to waste if you won't level up 
You're not an angel if you're playing with the devil's love
I've seen it happen one too many times and I've had enough 
I put no faith in the fakes 
Hard to trust a person if they're scared of making mistakes 
I'm fulfilling my purpose cause I'm not wasting my grace
Complacency will seal your fate if you're not chasing the face of breaking the rules 
Not trying to be cool 
Don't need no shiny jewels 
To prove to you that I'm true 
I'm as real gets 
I'm here for music and checks
I can show off my strength without ever having to flex 
My life is a fuckin mess but still I make it work 
Masetti taught me well, I know it could always be worse
Going harder when it hurts
So I can reap the love I sow
No one can break your spirit when you're the one in control
Better know 

I've been living fine on my island 
Logging off my life and finding solace in the silence 
I'm never entertained by the violence 
Or anything worrisome livin inside of  my eyelids
I'm smiling without a sound 
Seeing how much I lost myself was the best thing that I found and now 
Every single day I'm reminded 
That I got more than just luck being stuck on my island 

Nervous that I never would of fit 
Thought that I'd be better off if I just gave it up and quit 
Felt like every song I wrote was the farthest thing from a hit 
The doubt that I had with music bled to everything I did
And I dipped into a deeper depression than I intended 
Grew up in a society so easily offended 
By the words I would've said if I didn't keep myself quiet 
And so I reside in silence in the caves beneath my island 
I would write 
Creating my own heaven 
Because of that I haven't rested since 2007
Eleven years in the making 
My heart was slowly breaking 
Taking chances when it seemed like all of my options were fading 
I was patient
Sacrificed adolescence for the growth 
Crazy what you can accomplish when you ditch the hate for hope 
I needed a place to cope 
And this island made me see it  
All those years wishing for change when all I had to do was be it

I've been living fine on my island 
Logging off my life and finding solace in the silence 
I'm never entertained by the violence 
Or anything worrisome livin inside of  my eyelids
I'm smiling without a sound 
Seeing how much I lost myself was the best thing that I found and now 
Every single day I'm reminded 
That I got more than just luck being stuck on my island

This world has always tried to skew my placement 
My concrete decisions allowed my days to not be wasted 
Chasing what wasn't promised 
Brothers became dishonest 
Comets were flying into my ozone dropping composites 
Of carefully crafted chaos 
Continuous and redundant 
My thoughts would have me laying in my coffin always wondering 
Punching holes in my amygdala 
Stripping my hippocampus 
If I would've let it stretch any longer I could've vanished 
My panic attacks were strong but not strong enough to defeat me 
Anyone that wants a piece of greatness knows it isn't easy 
The friends I had to abandon 
Positions I had to stand in 
Branded myself to show that nothing that I had was handed 
I demanded my respect after a decade of commitment 
Then I quickly saw the value in who does and doesn't listen 
Cause even if I spend the rest of time up on a shelf 
I'll be happy when I pass because I did it for myself and no one else 

I've been living fine on my island 
Logging off my life and finding solace in the silence 
I'm never entertained by the violence 
Or anything worrisome livin inside of  my eyelids
I'm smiling without a sound 
Seeing how much I lost myself was the best thing that I found and now 
Every single day I'm reminded 
That I got more than just luck being stuck on my island
