Expectations Lyrics by Bren axe

The Forgotten Man

2021

[Verse 1]
Give me a break, I wanna feel alive
Took it up a notch to feel alright
Fading love, Fading nights
I've been through it all
Scared I won't be enough
What can I do to prove my love?
Show the world and risk it all
Learned to be the best
Learned to be on my own
Searched for a better quest
Earned a spot at home
I don't know if I should stay or not
Ooh
Questioning my every move
Don't know if I live up to your expectations
Of a protagonist in your life (I only hope)
Building up this self-confidence
God knows you'll appreciate it
Now I gotta know where to set the bar
Don't think it will get very far
No one has the right expectations for me
How can I live up to some of these deeds?

[Verse 2]
I wanna live up to everyone's standards
I know that's gonna be hard to fathom
I look around everyone has patterns
I don't want to study any longer
Finally got what I wanted
But it got loose
Now I gotta fight again
Fight again
Fight again
Don't look back it happened for a reason
Unexplainable expectations from the world
Seen it all with my own eyes
I don't understand why they feel to lie
Feel like I don't live up to your expectations
So I don't know what to do
What if I lose
And get stuck in the darkest spots again?

[Verse 3]
I wanna live up to what you want
Wanna show everyone who I am
It's been a while since I felt anything
Prayed to god with everything
Gotta make sacrifices
Tell the world I am ready
But is it true?
