Con Artist

They say just be yourself and I'm like
Who's that, 'cause I haven't met him yet
You be you and no one else but

I'm an amalgam of everyone I've ever met

They say just be yourself and I'm like
But who's that? Cause I haven't met him yet
I haven't met him yet

Bits of my mum and bits of my dad
I got bits of Muz, Jono, Joe, Clinton and Brad
I got bits of my wife, things my life never had
And JP tellin me to clean my room when it's bad

Every voice I've ever heard, still ringing in my ears
Am I a different person than when we were kids
I must've blinked and missed
Really thought when I was this old I'd feel older than this

They say just be yourself and I'm like
Who's that? Cause I haven't met him yet
You be you and no one else but
I'm an amalgam of everyone I've ever met

They say just be yourself and am I'm like

Inside my heart it's
Me tryin' my hardest
Feelin' like a con artist

I feel like a
Starvin artist just tryna break out
But the hardest part of starting is crafting your sound
'Cause how you s'posed to market, stand apart from the crowd
When every single sound you make has been made before now mate

Every lyric, every line, every beat, every key
Every single note
Is that something that I heard or is it something I wrote
But I can't deny what I admire most
So I guess we'll never know

They say just be yourself and I'm like
Who's that, cause I haven't met him yet
You be you and no one else but
I'm an amalgam of everyone I've ever met

They say just be yourself and I'm like

Some days I feel like a fraud
I wonder if I'll get caught
No I'm not sure
If I've ever had an original thought

They say just be yourself and I'm like
Who's that, cause I haven't met him yet
You be you and no one else but
I'm an amalgam of everyone I've ever met

Is this you or is it me
I still fail to see

La la la, la la la, la la
