As one goes through life one learns that if you don’t paddle your own canoe, you don’t move.
—Katherine Hepburn
Life keeps
Coming at you
And you wonder
What to do
You know
I wanna help
And I’m always
Here for you
But I can’t paddle
Your canoe
I can sit
And I can listen
Till morning’s
Wet with dew
I can even talk
If you want
My point of view
But I can’t paddle
Your canoe
I can love you
I can feed you
Hold your hand
And tie your shoe
I hope you
Always know
I got a million
Hugs for you
But I can’t paddle
Your canoe

People looking at you
Cuz they wanna see themself
Listening to advice
Is gonna ruin your mental health
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free
Ain’t no one alive
To tell ya what you’re all about
Listening to advice
Is gonna turn you inside out
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free
You’re the only person
Inside you from the start
You’re the only one
Who knows what’s living in your heart
Don’t let nobody tell ya
Who you’re sposed to be
Try to please the people
And you’ll never be free

Nothin’ from nothin’ leaves nothin’
—Billy Preston
There ain’t a woman who can see
All the love inside of me
Stupid two-bit loser town
Bitches try to bring me down
I need a woman sweet and pure
I’ll find my truth inside of her
I spend my cash and act a clown
Bitches try to bring me down
A million things that I could be
If only she believed in me
I could drink until I drown
Bitches try to bring me down

Fixating fixater
Frightened of yourself
Never stop talking
About everybody else
Fixating Fixater
Hanging by a thread
Neurotic fabrications
Stuck inside your head
Fixating fixater
Yackity yap yap
Pointing all your fingers
And talking loads of crap
Fixating fixater
Hiding from the pain
Take a slow breath
And look inside your brain

She burned my possessions
She poisoned my mule
She shredded my flat screen
And threw it in the pool
I had to find out
for myself
I wouldn’t believe
nobody else
She’s runnin all around
With a bunch of new men
My boss and my brother
And five of my friends
I had to find out
for myself
it wrecked my mind
and ruined my health
She emptied my treasury
She cashed in my chips
She bought herself rubies
And had a nice trip
I had to find out
for myself
she really helped me
share the wealth
All of my buddies
Been saying for years
But I was too timid
To face down my fears
I had to find out
for myself
I wouldn’t believe
nobody else
