  • I wrote this song after my accidental audition for American Idol. Crazy times. This song is about my imposter syndrome and not really thinking I deserve "the moment". Fast forward a couple months I just ended my American Idol journey finishing Top 10. Life is freakin random & I don't understand it, but thanks for listening. This is all I've ever wanted to do :)

    Lyrics:
    I think I'm chemically imbalanced
    I think I overthink everything trying not to waste my talents
    Think I write good songs but no one hears em all
    Am I the best undiscovered act or just delusional
    Ooo
    It's a wonderful life
    So what's wrong with me
    What if I don't deserve it
    What if I never find real love
    What if I'm always searching
    But the problem was me all along
    What if I never get inspired to write another song
    What if I bet my life but realize I was wrong
    What if I'm not special just one of seven billion chasing love
    What if I'm not enough
    I guess I like to play the victim
    I'd like to lie on the street and wait for someone else do the fixing
    Used to love hard work now it's difficult
    Used to have blind faith now I'm cynical
    Ooo
    It's a wonderful life
    So what the fuck is wrong with me
    What if I don't deserve it
    What if I never find real love
    What if I'm always searching
    But the problem was me all along
    What if I never get inspired to write another song
    What if I bet my life but realize I was wrong
    What if I'm not special just one of seven billion chasing love
    What if I'm not enough
    My brain is like
    Pandora's box of intrusive thoughts
    Wish I could call my mom
    Laugh it off, but
    I can't make it stop, someone make it stop
    What if one day i find her
    My soulmate my ride or die
    What if I mess it up so bad
    That it don't last and
    I end up dying alone
    I'll never get inspired to write another song
    What if I bet my life but realize I was wrong
    What if I'm not special just one of seven billion chasing love
    What if I'm not enough
    What if I'm not enough
    What if I'm not enough
    What if I'm not enough

    Man, I just stumbled on you and when I heard this song for the first time, I was tearing up. As soon as you started with "I think I'm chemically imbalanced", you caught my attention IMMEDIATELY; because I AM chemically imbalanced (been diagnosed 3x with ADHD in the past). Whether you feel it or not, you're not alone in how you feel. As hard as it is for me to believe it for myself, I believe it for you - that you are enough.

    I’ve always found music to be my escape, somewhere I didn’t have to listen to the voices inside my head or combat the horrid emotions I was feeling because I could never describe it in words how I felt but once I discovered you and watched your audition on idol, you managed to write two songs that truly describe what seems to be an every day feeling for me, this song being one of them. Thank you Kayko for existing, being a lyrical genius and an overall beautiful soul, you are phenomenal. You’ve helped me more than you’ll ever know ❤️ so again, thank you.

    This song makes me sob. It describes how I feel most of the time. NOT ENOUGH. Unfortunately, I did grow up in an abusive household. (abuse of EVERY kind) The mental abuse was waaaaaay worse than the physical and sx abuse. Those words that were said have stuck with me my whole life. I suffer from Major Depressive Disorder, Social Anxiety, Generalized Anxiety and Complex PTSD and have been in therapy most of my life since I was 4yrs old. Music has always been what's saved me. Thank you. ❤

    You're amazing!! This song is so real though, and you may not feel you have the power to shut off that other voice (which is completely a liar) but God does ❤ One thing that stood out about you at least watching Idol is that you're such a genuinley encouraging person, and it's easy to not feel that way about yourself but how you feel about yourself doesn't change how great you actually are. Also- you DO WRITE GREAT SONGS - fangirling

    ok i know this totally sounds, well, like a poser, to say on your own video probably but this is genuinely my favorite song ever since i heard it on idol. I personally dont have the greatest home life and songs like this have really helped me at times, i can relate to your songwriting and some other peoples songwriting so much it has stopped me from killing myself at times, and i cannot thank you enough for that! I really wish everyone wouldnt have stopped you from your original song choice on your last performance, since the moment you opened your mouth in that audition(?) i said you would be the winner, and even though you (wrongfully in my opinion) went home you will be HUGE!

Every time you perform you engage with your audience and bring them in to what you are feeling. That is a gift to be able to do that. Enjoy the ride because you're in it for the long run. You have a huge following!
