Embrace
M.I.K.E. Lyrics

Don't ever fail to embrace who you are, who you are
Always accept and love yourself for who you truly are without hesitation or reservation.

You were made to shine like one of the stars, like a star
You were created to radiate brightness and beauty just like the stars in the sky.

So why do you doubt yourself?
Why do you question or lack confidence in your own abilities, worth, or identity?

Talk down about yourself?
Do you frequently criticize or belittle yourself and your accomplishments?

Let them dictate your wealth?
Are you allowing other people to control or influence your success and prosperity?

Wishing you were someone else? (Someone еlse)
Do you desire to be another person or have their life instead of living your own?

Well, I dunno 'bout you but I've
I'm not sure about your experiences, but personally,

Been wrestling through the night
I've been struggling and fighting with my innermost self for a long time.

Hope the angels can hear my cries
I am praying that divine beings can hear my pleas for help and guidance during these difficult times.

Cause the demons working overtime
The evil and negative aspects of my mind seem to be especially active and powerful right now.

Sometimes I lose control
Occasionally, I cannot manage my emotions or reactions effectively.

And it feels like an overload
It seems like an overwhelming amount of stress and pressure is placed upon me.

So I pray to the Holy Ghost
I am asking for intervention and support from a divine, spiritual force.

Please can you take a hold
I am pleading for guidance and direction in my life.

Take control
I want a higher power to dominate and command my decisions and actions.

Please take a hold of me
I want a divine force to take charge and provide strength and clarity to my life.

Cause I feel so incomplete
I am experiencing a sense of lack or insufficiency in my life.

Feels like I'm sinking deep
I feel like I am descending into a deep and dark place emotionally.

That's why I'm on my knees
I am humbling myself and begging for divine assistance and guidance.

I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna leave
I do not want to depart from this world or situation without finding a resolution or peace.

Voices in my head making me feel weak
The thoughts and inner monologue within my mind are causing me to feel helpless and powerless.

Vivid memories make me wanna weep
Distinct and strong recollections from my past bring me to tears and immense emotion.

Sometimes I cry myself to sleep
At times, I weep uncontrollably as I try to drift off into sleep at night.

Hoping I can find peace in my dreams
I am hoping that sleep and dreaming can provide me with tranquility and calmness.

Hoping I can find the meaning of me
I am searching for a greater understanding and purpose in my life and identity.

Feels like everybody's leaning on me
It seems like a lot of people are relying on me or my help and support.

I need some space to breathe
I require some separation or distance from my responsibilities and stressors.

Start embracing the pace, the thrill, the chase
Begin to accept and enjoy the speed and excitement of your life's journey and challenges.

The Mud Hype type, when I ride; Two-Face
I am living my life with passion and enthusiasm, but also struggling with inner conflicts.

Hard times couldn't hide my face
Even during difficult and trying times, I refuse to hide my emotions or authentic self.

So I say get me high, get me laced
I am looking for ways to elevate and uplift my mood and mental state.

I pray perforate red tape
I hope to overcome bureaucratic or institutional obstacles in my endeavors.

Coulda sworn I was born to be great
I strongly believe that I am destined for greatness and success in my life.

Every night know I'm needing my 8
I recognize the importance of getting a full night's sleep for my physical and mental health.

Yet staying up late, yup needless to say
Despite this knowledge, I still find myself staying awake late into the night unnecessarily.

This a rough race like a steeplechase
Life can be challenging and difficult like a complicated athletic competition.

Alleviate what my people face
I want to mitigate and alleviate the problems and hardships faced by the people around me.

Partake in any trend we make
I am willing to participate in any current or emerging cultural phenomena or trends.

But in the make can't prove no stake
However, I cannot prove myself or my worth in those endeavors.

Still buss a smile for your sake
Despite this, I try to maintain a positive and happy demeanor for the benefit of others.

Been first in the place to be treated late
I have often found myself being neglected, overlooked, or disrespected despite my importance or status.

Hurt men gather evil ways
People who have been hurt or traumatized can often become negative or harmful themselves.

Spend days try'na cause aff-ray
These individuals may spend a lot of time attempting to create controversy, provoke others, or cause chaos.

Deep down in their thoughts afraid
These actions are often rooted in deep-seated fear and insecurity within their minds.

I see it, in your eyes that awkward phase
I can recognize these attributes and feelings in your eyes, as you may be going through a difficult or uncomfortable period in your life.

You wanna move on but were taught to stay
You desire to progress and move forward in your life, but were taught or conditioned to remain in a certain position or situation.

You can't phrase how you feel til it burns in shame
You find it difficult to articulate or express your emotions until they become painful or shameful.

Will you ever learn again?
Will you be able to gain knowledge and understanding from your experiences once more, or will you remain stuck in negative cycles?

With a heart that's closed, love turns away
When you have a guarded and closed-off state of mind, it becomes harder to give and receive love from others.

As the tide turns and waves
As your life circumstances and situations change unpredictably, like the turning of the tide or swaying of waves.

Let go, and glow, you know, you know who you are
Allow yourself to release your fears and doubts, and radiate with confidence and self-assuredness as you embrace your true identity.

You know, you know, you know, you know who you are
You already possess the knowledge and understanding of who you truly are deep inside yourself.
