Gezim Camaj - Letter to Myself

I wrote this letter to myself while in the struggle
My foundation collapsed, and I’m caught up in the rubble

I wrote this letter to myself cuz’ I was troubled
And I need to free myself out of this bubble


I got a lot going on, but not what you’re probably thinking
A lots been on my mind been heavily overthinking
Bout’ my past, bout’ my future, need to get back to the present
Cuz’ time is of the essence, and I don’t wanna miss my blessings

And all you have is mom, dad and your sister
Other people fade away but they’re always in the picture
You fell down they picked you up, and nursed you back when you were injured
And despite all of your losses, they bred you into a winner

But you can’t help how you feel, you try your best to cope with
All the trauma in your life
The weight must feel enormous
And you built walls like a fortress

You gotta let people in
Cuz’ it’s not always the outside, sometimes it’s deep within

And you’re worried about success, ironically, it’s a flaw
Perfectionisms an embolism clotting up your heart
And you think you’re not enough, so no matter what you do
You hold yourself back, from getting into the groove

But you gotta stick and move, stick and move
Weave your way out
And bounce off the ropes, hit em’ hard
Leave em’ face down

Look how you’ve grown, believe me it’s for the better
So my therapist suggested I wrote me a formal letter
And read it to myself, whenever I need reminders
You’re the man, you’re the champ, you a fuckin’ sole survivor

When my dad almost died, I swear I almost died with him
Coldest feeling in my system, was so helpless, was a victim
And I was in a bad space mentally, I could’ve ruined my life
From the depression that entered me

Cuz’ my dad is my best friend, that aint no line, its truth
I wouldn’t be this great if I didn’t have you, for real


I wrote this letter to myself while in the struggle
My foundation collapsed, and I’m caught up in the rubble

I wrote this letter to myself cuz’ I was troubled
And I need to free myself out of this bubble

I wrote this letter to myself while in the struggle
My foundation collapsed, and I’m caught up in the rubble

I wrote this letter to myself cuz’ I was troubled
And I need to free myself out of this bubble


Sometimes you stare away in space, while thinking about the past
Not realizing that the sands is fillin’ the hourglass
And you know you should look forward, while thinking of how to plan
But anxiety sits tight on your head like a shower cap

Cuz’ you wanna be the greatest and you wanna free your mind
When in reality, you held the keys all this time
A prisoner of your own design, but if you started thinking differently man
You would be doin’ just fine

Listen, this is what I want you to do
Zim, this is the only way that you’re gonna improve
Instead of worrying about whether you win or you lose
Try to enjoy your life more while you stick to the route

Cuz’ the path that you’re on is the right one, I feel it
The universe will reveal it and there aint a soul who could steal it
Just listen to your gut whenever it speak, and say the affirmations
AINT NOBODY BETTER THAN ME


I wrote this letter to myself while in the struggle
My foundation collapsed, and I’m caught up in the rubble

I wrote this letter to myself cuz’ I was troubled
And I need to free myself out of this bubble

I wrote this letter to myself while in the struggle
My foundation collapsed, and I’m caught up in the rubble

I wrote this letter to myself cuz’ I was troubled
And I need to free myself out of this bubble
