Level with Yourself - David Bazan
Wake up in the morning
Check your revelation
Making sure you know it as well as you can
Then sell it to yourself, man
Cause it won't make a difference
If everyone believes it
But you don't believe it
Just level with yourself
Level with yourself
Level with yourself
And be at peace with me
You're making a list of all
The negative side effects
That come with the sh_t you let
Yourself get away with
Oh your God!
You're building a wall between
The kids and the gasoline
Of editorial and advertising
Riches I heed not
Nor man's empty praise
We've f_cked the gatekeeper
As I'm flying outside the gate
I want to level with myself
I want to level with my friends
I want to level with my kid
And be at peace with them
I'm making a list of all
The negative side effects
That come with the sh_t I let
Myself get away with
Oh my God!
I'm building a wall between
The kids and the gasoline
Of editorial and advertising
