Oddly enough, I'm happy I ain't famous
Imagine waking up to the fact that you're simply entertainment
I bet God thinks you're amusing

Seven lyrics, no interviews, and they skew personal: wisdom leads with 3 tags, then wit and pain at 2 and 2. GodLovesUgly appears twice (2), once about scars and once about letting a tree rise. The others range from relief at not being famous to a morning-after in a stranger's apartment to Yesterday, a verse addressed to a dead father. It is short, but it shows a writer who works in confession.
Somebody give me a big yes (yes!)
God bless America, but she stole the B from Bless (and kept it)
I thought I saw you yesterday
But I know it wasn't you 'cause you passed away, Dad
And save breath, and avoid you, sober and upset in the morning
I wanna scream, "Fuck you, Lucy"
But the problem is I love you, Lucy
So instead I'ma finish my drink and have another
I wear my scars like the rings on a pimp
I live life like the captain of a sinking ship
The one thing that I can guarantee
I'm like a stepping razor, I suggest you stay fair with me
Talking to my shadow, he advised me not to worry
Said, I should plant my tree and let it rise out of the fury
Staring at the bathroom mirror in a stranger's apartment
Can't remember her name, don't remember how I got here
But here I am, thinking about death again
Humbles out the stress, helps the breath get in
