Superman

When I feel like Clark Kent
Hate my situation
Running out of patience
How could I ever be superman
Superman, superman, superman
How could I ever be superman

I used to wake up every day throw on my cape
Busting my hard-earned ass for Lois Lane
Spending hard-earned cash to make a play
If she wanted clouds I'd pay to make it rain
Addicted on the verge of insane
My predictions listed that nothing could stop this train
I was tripping, double dipping without permission
Playing with honey and cactuses praying that it wouldn't get sticky
I'm big enough to admit that I was wrong
Sorry I waited till you were gone, what a pity
Writing down the things I've been missing like me and you running the city

When I feel like Clark Kent
Hate my situation
Running out of patience
How could I ever be superman
Superman, superman, superman
How could I ever be superman

I'm optimistic, rarely realistic, GPS signaled a turn, clearly I missed it
Things change and people change get with the times
Only crime left to fight is my self-pessimism
This ain't no doomsday, I got the secret formula in my safe
Sounds like a lotta hoopla, don't care what you say
Crowns are made for kings, Why can't that be me
Holding on to the old saying that you dream what you can't see
So from now on I'm breaking the mold unapologetically
I spent too long watering roots, time to grow a tree
And if it falls down and no one's there I'm proud that I could hear it
Failures, I'm proud that I can wear em
Titanic, proud that I could steer it

When I feel like Clark Kent
Hate my situation
Running out of patience
How could I ever be superman
Superman, superman, superman
How could I ever be superman
