humanity

• these days i find
  i’m wasting my time
  on all the little things
  that shouldn’t concern me
  weighing my heart
  with such confused emotion
  letting anxiousness in
  where peace should prevail
  
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better of me
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better, getting the better of me
  
  i’ve been working on it
  just trying and working on it
  knowing the soul to be lighter
  if i could just shed this weight
  or just carry this weight
  without objection
  so weight become lightness
  and light becomes weightless
  
  oooo it’s just my humanity
  getting the better of me
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better, getting the better of me
  
  i’m lifting
  the lid off
  eventually
  holding my head up
  and clarity
  where once there was proud
  i know this place
  and smile inside
  
  ooooh it’s just my humanity
  getting the better of me
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better, getting the better of me
  
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better, getting the better of me
  getting the better, getting the better (getting the better), getting the better of me
  it’s just my humanity
  getting the better, getting the better of me
