Broken Compass

[Verse 1] Woke up drowning in advice "Here’s what you need," "Here’s how to live right" They map my path in dotted lines They don't let me live my life Said I should’ve settled down by now Clock is ticking, better make them proud But they don’t know the roads I’ve seen Or how I veer off course deliberately [Pre-Chorus] They speak like they were born with maps But they’re just guessing, same as me They'll walk you straight into a trap Eyes wide open, I am free [Chorus] Broken compass, I’m still moving No clear signs but I keep choosing All their routes just lead to shame So I’ll get lost in my own way Let 'em say I missed the mark Let 'em scoff while I fall apart They act like they can guarantee The way to go, but they can’t even see [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 2] I take the long way just to breathe No finish line, no guarantee They chase the prize like it brings peace But I don't buy what they believe They want the proof before the plan But I’ve got dirt still on my hands I build, I break, I try again Some things they’ll never understand [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] Broken compass, I’m still moving No clear signs but I keep choosing All their routes just lead to shame So I’ll get lost in my own way Let 'em say I missed the mark Let 'em scoff while I fall apart They act like they can guarantee The way to go, but they can’t even see [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] Won't let the blind lead the blind, I’ll leave them all behind. They’re trapped in their own design, But I’m breaking out this time. Won’t let their words pull my strings, I’m the one who decides the life I lead Lost or found, I'll be okay I'll find my path, I'll find my way [Instrumental Solo] [Pre-Chorus] No map for the broken roads, No promises or scripts to hold. I walk alone, but I’m not lost, I pay the price, but I chose the cost. [Chorus] Broken compass, I’m still moving No clear signs but I keep choosing All their routes just lead to shame So I’ll get lost in my own way Let 'em say I missed the mark Let 'em scoff while I fall apart They act like they can guarantee The way to go, but they can’t even see [Instrumental Solo] [Outro] So don’t wait up, I won’t turn back, Not chasing dreams that fade to black. Compass broke, but I don't care Cause I'll make my way anywhere
