My Own Worst Enemy

A lot of the time we hold ourselves back out of fear of failure. Essentially we're our worst enemy.

Im my own worst enemy,finally figured it out

Dont know if its my anxiety or my crippling self doubt.

Petrified of failing,so i dont even try.

Always better at that than succeeding,guess thats probably why

Used to being called a dissapointment, internalized it, instead of taking it in stride

For years its been etched there,festering inside.

Used procrastination as motivation,which in turn turned into habitation

Didnt deter my determination, but never put me in the best situation

Hopefully tomorrow, 'cause i know not today

That ill leave failure,make love to success and get out my own way.

Hits really hard. Relatable and deep.
