Jealousy (Live) lyrics
by Jordy Searcy
[Verse 1]
My friends sold three hundred tickets in Cleveland
And I think I hate their guts
Cause I spent today counting the ways
That their music really sucks
'Cause after all I'm so much more authentic
And people love the lyrics that I write
It never occurred I might be bitter
'Cause I'm singing in a living room tonight
[Chorus]
Jealousy
Always gets the best of me
I was born with a gavel in my hands
But when I try
To see myself with honest eyes
I just wanna be who I think I'm better than
It's so hard to see
Jealousy
Jealousy
Jealousy
[Verse 2]
My little brother gave me advice
And it really p*ssed me off
How dare he try to be
The older and wiser one
And what made it worse is that he brought up
Things I didn't want him to prove
So now there are two elephants in the room
My brother's advice and my own issues
[Chorus]
Jealousy
Always gets the best of me
I was born with a gavel in my hands
But when I try
To see myself with honest eyes
I just wanna be who I think I'm better than
It's so hard to see
[Verse 3]
I wrote this song to make you think
That I am self-aware
That I am humble, but also wise
And I've got it all together
But if you wanna' know a secret
If you really want the truth
Sometimes the reason I write songs
Is 'cause I want you to be jealous of me too
[Chorus]
Jealousy
Always gets the best of me
I was born with blood on my hands
But when I try
To see myself with honest eyes
I just wanna be who I think I'm better than
It's so hard to see
Jealousy
Jealousy
Jealousy
[Spoken]
"Sweet, sweet, thank you guys so much."
