HELP IS ON THE WAY Akie Bermiss, Michael Calabrese, Bridget Kearney, and Rachael Price Softer skin, harder muscles Inner peace, outer hustle Spend my days, spend my money Tryna help myself Bigger dreams, smaller ego Less machines, more libido All the ways, all the time I'm tryna help myself Chorus: But I can’t help myself, help myself help me No, I can't help myself, so help me get free What if all of us out helping ourselves could help somebody else? Help is on the way, help is on the way No excess in my diet Supplements, yeah, I'll buy it Tonics, tinctures, you know I’ll try it I'm tryna help myself Longer life, lower tension Endless knowledge, no retention I forget now, did I mention I'm tryna help myself? Chorus Self-acceptance got no nearer My perception got no clearer From all this staring in the mirror Tryna help myself Oh, but just when I thought I'd hit my limit I saw that all of us are here in it And I forgot for just one minute About tryna help myself Chorus
