Had It All

I've got no backup,
no safety netting
so why am I betting
these kind of stakes?

It's so confusing
winning or losing
I've made so many mistakes

My work is cut out
it needs my best now
I just can't guess how
it will unfold

Got to work through it
If I can just do that
I'll say I always knew that
I had it all

There's ground to cover
I've barely scratched it
and once you catch it,
that fever grows

So many loners
So many late-bloomers
So many rumors nobody knows

My work is cut out
it needs my best now
I just can't guess how
it will unfold

Got to work through it
If I can just do that
I'll say I always knew that
I had it all

But am I me yet?
Sometimes I see it,
Sometimes feel like a genius and still so far to go.
Why am I not free yet
of all this doubting?
My mind keeps shouting and it never gets a sore throat.

My work is cut out
it needs my best now
I just can't guess how
it will unfold

Got to work through it
If I can just do that
I'll say I always knew that
I had it all.
