(Verse)

Lately I feel like a puppet, who's been thrown in 15 million different places

Girlfriend's on the phone, the other lone I got my agent

Like hey Jake, got good news, we just booked another tour

Yea that's good and all but that just means another civil war between me and my girl

What am I supposed to say?

Hey baby, how you doin? I missed you home

By the way I'm bout to leave, ah good

I'm going on a fall tour

But I'll be back before you know it, then I'm all yours

Listen Jake, she'll understand, this is more important

Oh really? You wanna tell her that?

Cuz if I ever did she'd probably kill me

Look I'm sorry Jake but it's done deal, you're leavin Thursday

And you'll be on the road during Christmas and your birthday

Great, my girl's mad cuz I ain't there a lot

And now I gotta spend my birthday in the courtyard mary at

Drinkin up your stress man, you've had a busy year

But this is what you sound good for, this is your career

This ain't a shooting for the weak hearted, Jake I thought you knew

But you're canvassing your dream and having all my life through

If you ain't ready tell me now, I never said that it was easy

Otherwise I'll be in my office, you know where to reach me
(Hook)

Yea, I'm feelin like a puppet

A goddamn puppet

Being pulled in a million different ways

Man I think I'm bout to break

I'm a puppet

A goddamn puppet

Sick of feeling like a puppet

Sometimes I wanna disappear, all these voices in my head


I'm a I'm a
(Verse)

Look, hang up with my agent, put my phone down on the table

Five seconds later get a call from my label

Like hey Jake, how you doin? Tell me how's the album comin?

We heard your last song and honestly we didn't love it

We don't think it'll make the cut, could've written better verses

Deadline's in a month and now we startin to get nervous

Stop getting so distracted, start pickin up the pen

You need more time in the studio, and les time with your friends

Cuz it's crunch time, should be doing nothing but making music

We follow you on Instagram, see everything you doin

Yea we see you at the beach, at the gym, at the mall

To be honest, doesn't seem like you're working hard at all

A day later I don't even have time to take a shit

I've been working non-stop and I'll be honest, I admit

Sometimes I need a break, this life can drive a man crazy

Especially when your label keeps callin sayin you're lazy

Listen Jake, I know it's hard

Sometimes it isn't fun

But if this album tanks, well your career could be done

If you ain't ready tell us now, never said that it was easy

Otherwise I'll be in my office, you know where to reach me
