(Fast instrumental) [Verse 1] When I was young, I would wander the halls Getting in trouble, skipping out on it all Eyes on the page, but the words don’t stay Stuck on a line like it’s groundhog day Taught in a crowd when I needed one-on-one Always on edge, just waiting to run [Pre-Chorus] They said I’m lazy, they said I’m wrong But they don’t know what’s been going on [Chorus] Let me focus, just give me space I ain’t broken, just wired this way Jump from thought to thought like flames in the wind Try to hold on, but it slips again Don’t call me crazy, don’t say I’m hopeless I just need you to let me focus [Verse 2] Can’t sit still, so I keep my hands full Doodle and dream till the world feels dull Crafting in chaos, but it keeps me sane Yeah, there’s method in the mess I maintain They blame the noise when I’m tuned in deep But call me out when I’m lost in the beat [Pre-Chorus] I try to listen, I try to care But I’m fightin’ battles they can’t see there [Chorus] Let me focus, just give me time I ain't broken, just don’t fit the line I burn bright when the fire’s lit But you pull me away when I’m into it Don’t call me careless, don’t say I’m reckless I just need you to let me focus [Bridge] (Slow and emotional) I’m not your problem, I’m not your shame I’ve got a different kind of flame Might be chaos to your eyes But there’s clarity in my skies (Builds into power) Don’t shut me out, don’t hold me down This mind of mine was never meant to drown [Final Chorus] Let me focus, let me breathe Don’t ask for more, then just leave I’m trying harder than you’ll ever know Just need some patience to let it grow Don’t call me broken, don’t say I’m useless I just need you to let me focus [Outro] So let me be, let me rise Don’t judge my world through your eyes Yeah, I’m different, not out of focus I just need you… To let me focus
