Be Careful What You Wish For Lyrics by Alex Lepping

But That Doesn’t Mean I’ll Like It

2021

[Verse 1]
Blending the lines between artist and me
Writing all my songs, taking creative liberties
Overwhelmed with choices, I feel like Drew Gooden
I keep procrastinating, even though I shouldn’t
At this point, I’m just done with you
I said that life’s a show does that mean I been acting too?
I mean, I said that they were actors, well, they just did their bows
'Cause they’re all leaving now
[Chorus]
I mean what I say, that’s why I write it
I took what I can get, but that doesn’t mean I like it
I thought being sad was sick, and now I regret it, no
Bе careful what you wish for
[Verse 2]
I used to get all my opinions from Twittеr
Got my friends and family feeling a little bitter
I said that they all left me, I like being alone
My only friend is my phone, in my room listening to Watch the Throne
(and ooh, now) And I keep feeling down but that’s the way life goes
(and ooh, now) Feeling anxious, keeping up with status quos
[Chorus]
I mean what I say, that’s why I write it
I took what I can get, but that doesn’t mean I like it
I thought being sad was sick, and now I regret it, no
Be careful what you wish for
My lyrics represent all my desperation
Will I live up to all your expectations?
I’m more melodramatic than a high school emo band
Now I’m self aware, will you be a fan?
[Bridge]
Yeah, ay ay
All my plans get cancelled, are you busy or do you not wanna see me?
Am I the problem? I don’t know, I know y’all are tryna be me
From YouTube to the music
My sounds? You all use 'em
I'm stuck in a rerun, brainwashed like I'm Leland
I kinda made it far, I don’t know how to make it farther
Tryna bring back the vibes I had when I was making "Martyr"
Don’t open texts I know they’re all gonna be “I can’t make it”
I’m not Jack, but I’m stuck in a box and the only way out is to fake it
[Chorus]
I mean what I say, that’s why I write it
I took what I can get, but that doesn’t mean I like it
I thought being sad was sick, and now I regret it, no
Be careful what you wish for
My lyrics represent all my desperation
Will I live up to all your expectations?
I’m more melodramatic than a high school emo band
Now I’m self aware, will you be a fan?
[Outro]
Will you be a fan now?
Will you be a fan now?
