Urban Chords – “I’m a Mess” Lyrics
The track “I’m a Mess” by Urban Chords offers a fresh take on Omah Lay‘s original composition, exploring themes of emotional turmoil, fragility, and mental strain. It vividly portrays the sensation of loneliness, the relentless cycle of overanalyzing, and the reliance on alcohol as a fleeting refuge from emotional pain. The song skillfully blends heartfelt vulnerability with smooth Afrobeat influences, highlighting the contrast between public acclaim, private battles, and the pursuit of inner peace.
Urban Chords – I’m a Mess Lyrics
Uh uuh uuuuh
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Some days bring joy
Others leave me low
I can’t quite pinpoint what’s troubling me
Sometimes I’m serene (Sometimes I’m serene)
Other times I’m restless (Other times I’m restless)
Still puzzled by the fog in my head
Still puzzled by the fog in my head
My mind spins without end (without end)
Often it feels like nobody (nobody)
Really understands the pain I hide inside
‘Cause I’m utterly lost (I’m utterly lost)
Finding it hard to keep close ties
So I numb the ache with whiskey
(I’ve been drinking)
I’ve downed too many shots of whiskey
One to calm my nerves, another for the broken heart
Three out of habit, four to avoid falling back
Looking for someone to have my back
So I never face the world sober
I can’t ever be clear-headed
I can’t ever be clear-headed, oh, oh
(I can’t ever be clear-headed)
Ohh ooh ooh, yes, I’ve made it
Millions earned through my passion
Draped in high-end fashion, flashing for the cameras
Letting the spotlight capture my grin, you see
No one matches my style
No one matches my style
I carve my own path
Everyone notices
Yet I don’t know what clouds my thoughts
My mind spins without end
Often it feels like nobody
Really understands the pain I hide inside
‘Cause I’m utterly lost
Finding it hard to keep close ties
So I numb the ache with whiskey
I’ve downed too many shots of whiskey
One to calm my nerves, another for the broken heart
Three out of habit, four to avoid falling back
Looking for someone to have my back
So I never face the world sober (I never face the world sober)
I can’t ever be clear-headed
Uuhuuuuu— uuuh
