at my best lyrics – machine gun kelly ft. hailee steinfeld

i wrote this song as a message for help
on behalf of anybody finding theirself
i wrote this letter to numb your pain
cause everyday i wake up i’m feeling the same
i got issues just like you got issues
i been hurt i seen the scar tissue
if i show you would you run away…

do i gotta hide ’em for you to wanna stay
do i, even need you, should i leave you
do i, gotta be you, just to please you
do i, say i’m all good, when i bleed you
through my, heart, quit tearing mine apart

i shout, i swear, i get angry, i get scared
i fall, i break, i mess up, i make mistakes
but if you can’t take me at my worst
you don’t deserve me at my best…

got to keep it going, got to keep my head up, uh
got to keep it going, got to keep my head up, uh
got to keep it going, got to keep my head up cause life is about,
aight check this out…

life is about making mistakes
it’s also about trying to be great
do not let failure scare you away
i know you fed up, you fall, get up
it’s all in us, i can speak about ’cause i did it (true)
ladies and gentlemen here’s the exhibit
it’s my life look a little closer you could see the highlight
gold ain’t always golden but i told ’em
look at all the years i’ve been waiting for a moment
shed a lot of tears just to smile in the morning
tell me could you love me, tell me could you love me
tell me could you love me if i told you why…

i shout, i swear, i get angry, i get scared
i fall, i break, i mess up, i make mistakes
but if you can’t take me at my worst
you don’t deserve me at my best…

this song’s for anybody, yeah
who feels like i did
never the cool kid
this song’s for anybody
who fought their way through
always remain true
this song’s for anybody
the one’s who trying to get it
the one’s who dreaming and live it
this song’s for anybody
this song, this song, this song, this song,
this song, this song…

i shout, i swear, i get angry, i get scared
i fall, i break, i mess up, i make mistakes
but if you can’t take me at my worst
you don’t deserve me at my best
got to keep it going, got to keep my head up, uh
got to keep it going, got to keep my head up, uh
got to keep it going, got to keep my head up cause life is about….
