Jaded
Aaron Taylor Lyrics

There's a chip on your shoulder
You have a grudge or grievance against someone or something

And you think you get treated bad
You have a perception that you get treated unfairly

Ain't nobody wronged ya
Nobody has actually done anything wrong to you

All the wrong is inside your head
Your perception of the situation is causing you to feel wronged

You think it's all set against ya
You believe that everything is working against you

Well that ain't necessarily so
Your perception may not be accurate or true

You should change perspective
You should look at the situation from a different angle

Either that or just let it go
If you cannot change your perspective, then you should let go of the grudge or grievance

Well I have had enough
The artist has grown tired of the situation

I won't let you steal all the fun
The artist will not allow your negative attitude to ruin the enjoyment of others

I'll be the bigger man
The singer will rise above the situation and be mature about it

Let's forget it
The artist wants to move on from the situation

Let bygones be bygones
The singer believes that the past should be left in the past

You should stop your stressing
You need to stop worrying or being stressed about the situation

Didn't you hear it's a waste of time
Worrying or being stressed is not productive or helpful to the situation

Ain't that complicated
The situation is not as difficult as you believe it to be

There's no need to believe the lies
Misconceptions or falsehoods should not be believed

How you see the problem
The way you perceive the situation

It is totally up to you
Your perception or understanding of the situation is solely your responsibility

You should try come higher
You should aim for a higher level of understanding

And leave that jaded kind of view
Try to see the situation with a fresh, un-biased perspective

'Cause I have had enough
The artist is tired of dealing with you and your negative attitude

Why are you always mad
The singer questions your constant negative emotions

Take a deep breath
Relax, calm down, take a step back

Just chill out
Relax, don't get so wound up

Things ain't that bad
The situation is not as dire as you perceive it to be

Let your hair down
Relax, be yourself, enjoy the moment

Fix your crown
Adjust your attitude, demeanor, or confidence

You are so jaded it's unreal
Your perspective on the situation is extremely negative and biased

Don't be mad, fix your crown
Don't be angry, but adjust your attitude or confidence

Turn that frown upside down
Stop being so negative, try to be positive
