Trust Myself

Story Behind The Song

"Trust Myself" is about my own journey pursuing a career in music. I wanted to express my struggles of overthinking and self-doubt about the path I've chosen. I struggle with perfectionism and always want my work to be perfect and will overwork myself trying to achieve that. I'm trying to let go of overthinking everything and always trying to be perfect and trust the process and the journey I'm on.

Lyrics

No, it's never right
Always in my head
Want to make the change
But nothing ever comes from it
Over-analyze
Back and forth I go
Sit in silence
While the fear inside takes control

Will I ever make it
Will it be my time
When my mind is fading
And I can't see the light
But I'm always patient
I'll put up a fight
When my hands are shaking
Do I go left or right

I got to trust myself
When I need help
Don't want to rush myself
I know what I felt
Don't want to crush myself
It's not hard to tell
Stay open and trust what you feel

Now it's fight or flight
Hanging by a thread
Every battle that I face
Are thoughts inside my head
Undermine myself
Finding ways to cope
Burn the candle at both ends
Singing songs I wrote

Will I ever make it
Will it be my time
When my heart is aching
And nothing here feels right
And I'm always patient
I'll put up a fight
When my hands are shaking
I'm always thinking twice

You got to trust yourself
When you need help
Don't want to rush yourself
You know what you felt
Don't want to crush yourself
You know very well
Have hope, you just got to believe

Take that risk
Break through and just let yourself go
If you miss
Just know that your passion will grow

I got to trust myself
When I need help
Don't want to rush myself
I know what I felt
Don't want to crush myself
It's not hard to tell
Stay open and trust what you feel

I got to trust myself
When I need help
Don't want to rush myself
I know what I felt
Don't want to crush myself
It's not hard to tell
Stay open and trust what you feel

I got to trust myself, ooh
Don't want to rush myself
I've got to trust myself
Stay open and trust what you feel
