      Awesome song! I also relate, my take is the scapegoat empath getting abused by the narcissist.

    If you liked this song, Joy has more really incredible music. Brilliant poetry, great production and songwriting. I currently can't stop listening to Changes and We're All Gonna Die (from her latest album). But you don't want to miss her previous album either, which is also pretty stunning.

    Lyrics: "Somebody Like Me"
    Even when I do my best
    Feels like it doesn't matter
    Feels like it doesn't matter
    I've watched even my best intentions
    Turn into disaster
    Everything goes backwards
    I've searched the rubble of all of my decisions
    Learned to say sorry for the things I do
    Though I don't want to
    Some days it feels so hard to get better
    And I've never been as honest as I want to be
    When I need help through
    Can anybody say a prayer?
    Can anybody light a candle?
    For somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    It's the least that God could do
    For giving more than He could handle
    To somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    Somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    I've watched all my rivers run dry
    Over and over
    Over and over
    Now I know that's no way to get by
    Can't keep on fixing
    The things I haven't broken
    I've searched the rubble of all of my decisions
    Learned to say sorry for the things I do
    Though I don't want to
    Some days it feels so hard to get better
    And I've never been as honest as I want to be
    When I need help through
    Can anybody say a prayer?
    Can anybody light a candle
    For somebody like me?
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    It's the least that God could do
    For giving more than He could handle
    To somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    Somebody like me
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    Somebody like me ain't perfect
    Somebody like me needs care
    In the moment I'm heavy and hurting
    Can anybody meet me there?
    Somebody like me ain't perfect
    Somebody like me needs care
    In the moment I'm heavy and hurting
    Can anybody meet me there?
    Somebody like me ain't perfect
    Somebody like me needs care
    In the moment I'm heavy and hurting
    Can anybody meet me there?
    Somebody like me ain't perfect
    Somebody like me needs care
    In the moment I'm heavy and hurting
    Can anybody meet me there?

    If you're looking for new artists to feature on the show, you may want to check out SB19, a multi-genre Filipino male group who are monsters when performing live. Their latest single Gento went viral on Tiktok with 1 billion views so far. Great beats, meaningful lyrics. And the choreography is 👌🏼. They will surely put your stage on fire. 🤟🏻

    I NEVER NEVER NEVER get picked to serve on a jury, not that I want to be, but I believe it is my civic responsibility, I sit through days n days of waiting and watching and listening to the babbling of some of the densest potential jurors ever born, then last second, I’m dismissed. Every time. My most recent experience, for whatever reason, every single one of us had to listen to every single other answer precisely the same queries: “Have you ever been the victim of a __? Is anyone in your family in law enforcement?” On and on for days. Next time I swear I am going to fake a seizure.
