I Owe Myself

by Kevin Silvester

on I Owe Myself (2019), Dear 16 Year Old Me (2020)

[Verse 1]
The words have been said
But  they're all in my head again
I'll  shut up instead
My lifestyle's like roulette
But my mind's like a preset
It's  not a secret
Yeah  I just wanna say

[Chorus]
I view it in a different way
And  I don't want you to make the same mistake
Because you owe yourself
And I owe myself
You deserve all the best
And  this comes straight from that shit inside of my chest
Because you owe yourself
And I owe myself

[Post-Chorus]
So much
So much
Because I owe myself

[Verse 2]
I'll care for myself
And do best for my health
Yeah slowly
I'm crawling through hell
I can't stay low forever
I gotta treat myself better
This anxiety inside of me has been there for way too long

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh when the curtain's drawn
I'm contemplating dusk til' dawn
And I believe everyone deserves to be happy
And now I'm feeling strong
When I'm standing here singing this song
And I believe I owe myself, I owe myself

[Chorus]
I view it in a different way
And I don't want you to make the same mistake
Because you owe yourself
And I owe myself
You deserve all the best
And this comes straight from that shit inside of my chest
Because you owe yourself
And I owe myself

[Post-Chorus]
So much
So much
Because I owe myself
So much
So much
Because I owe myself

[Bridge]
Oh when the curtain's drawn
I'm contemplating dusk til' dawn
And I believe everyone deserves to be happy
And now I'm feeling strong
When I'm standing here singing this song
And I believe I owe myself, I owe myself

[Outro]
So much
So much
So much
So much
