Lyrics:
Alt's back!
And this one's a little different
Probably the most real song I've ever written
So get ready to see what's inside my mind!
I also can't rap, um, so I apologize for subjecting you to this
Man, I'm so confused
I really wish I could combine
All the things that I do
Cause they take up so much time
I've got a full-time job that I work
And yeah, sure it pays the bills
But I'd much rather spend my time making money with my skills
Have you ever heard of an artist who makes candy on the side
Well that's exactly what I do, cause I guess I can't decide
Should I livestream in the morning, or go out for a run
Cause I'd like to improve my health, but that doesn't sound as fun
Maybe I should get back to those clips I want to edit
Cause if I take much longer on that project, then I might as well forget it
The frustrating thing about this is I have these aspirations
But the time flies by, the sun goes down
And it's back to my occupation
Who am I, I gotta know
What am I doing here
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I gotta know
Can I find that truth inside
Who am I, who am I
(Really though, who am I)
Well, I'm Alt3R
I'm the TV guy, and I make reggae music, but I've never been high
And I make what I make no matter how long it takes
And I take my time till I make it right (yeah)
I've got a lot of hobbies, and I always find more
Yeah, I might be crazy, but at least I'm never bored
It takes a lot of energy to do this all
I'm chugging that coffee so that I won't fall asleep
Just kidding (nah), caffeine doesn't work on me
It's supposed to cure headaches, but it only ever hurts me
Raw doggin' life, and I make my own rules
And the only rule is that there are no rules
They say just stick to what you know
If you stay in your lane, it'll help you grow
But how the hell am I supposed to do one thing
When I'm jumping to the next, must be ADHD
I used to think that gaming was a waste of time
Not for other people, but just in my own mind
I'd rather spend time on the work I want to do
So I can make progress on seeing it through
Eventually I learned that it's crucial to relax
If I never take a break, I might never come back
So I started playing Minecraft in my free time
And it was kinda nice to take some me time
So then I got to thinking, man, what a shame
All these things I've built are gonna go to waste
Cause I don't have a way to share my creativity
With the other people who are in this community
If only I could find a way to let people see
But then it seemed obvious, I'll put it on my stream
What started as a way for me to chill and have fun
Has turned into work, and now I'm back to square one
Who am I, I gotta know
What am I doing here
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I gotta know
Can I find that truth inside
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I've gotta know
What am I doing here
Who am I, who am I
I gotta try to live my life
In the way that makes sense to me
It's do or die, do or die
Who am I, I gotta know
What am I doing here
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I gotta know
Can I find that truth inside
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I gotta know
What am I doing here
Who am I, who am I
Who am I, I gotta know
Can I find that truth inside
Who am I, who am I
