Look What I've Become
Mike Posner Lyrics
(Dwilly, I'm scared)
Walked across Ohio, took me fifty days
I talked to the stars, they were happy that I came
Somedays, I'm a genius, others, I'm insane
There is somethin' gorgeous underneath the pain
I can feel it liftin', woo, I'm feelin' good
I'm thinkin' 'bout David from my old neighborhood
A warm and perfect white light in each of my cells
I used to be a pop singer, now I am myself
Yeah, I took a little time right now just count my blessings
Count my blessings, count, count, count
Took a little time right now just to count my blessings
Count my blessings, okay
Even when I'm fallin', there's somethin' underneath
Somethin' that is perfect, it's almost like a dream
And I know Vincent Van Gogh, I know Princess Di
And David Foster Wallace, he calls me all the time
If I think 'bout paradise, I'd imagine this
No drugs or no alcohol 'cause I'm high as it is
Yeah, I don't want your money, I am simply done
I just walked away, huh, look what I've become
Look what I've become (woo, woo)
Look what I've become (woo, woo)
Look what I've become (woo, woo)
Look what I've become
Rollin' through South Central, better watch your ass
Bars all on my window, pistol on my bed-stand
To live and die in L.A., couldn't make it off of minimum wage
I had to get the big body Mercedes
Cop a Rollie, plus one for my lady, my lady
I always knew I'd be a legend, saw it in my dreams
I had to keep one eye open, I could barely sleep (sleep)
I had to kill 'em with success like they the enemy
Murder, murder, murder, Lord, mercy me
I stopped smokin' last year, fuck that, started back again
God don't make no accidents, look what I've become
Yeah, look what I've become
Walked across Ohio, took me fifty days
I talked to the stars, they were happy that I came
Somedays, I'm a genius, others, I'm insane
There is somethin' gorgeous underneath the pain
I can feel it liftin', woo, I'm feelin' good
I'm thinkin' 'bout David from my old neighborhood
A warm and perfect white light in each of my cells
I used to be a pop singer, now I am myself
Yeah, I took a little time right now just count my blessings
Count my blessings, count, count, count
Took a little time right now just to count my blessings
Count my blessings, okay
Even when I'm fallin', there's somethin' underneath
Somethin' that is perfect, it's almost like a dream
And I know Vincent Van Gogh, I know Princess Di
And David Foster Wallace, he calls me all the time
If I think 'bout paradise, I'd imagine this
No drugs or no alcohol 'cause I'm high as it is
Yeah, I don't want your money, I am simply done
I just walked away, huh, look what I've become
Look what I've become (woo, woo)
Look what I've become (woo, woo)
Look what I've become (woo, woo)

Yeah, look what I've become
