“You know, I’ve never cried so hard that I can’t stop and smile a little. I’ve never been so sad and scared that I can’t breathe. But I can’t seem to break this chain, and I know it’s killing me. I just want to lose it all, so I can be, finally, happy with myself. Sometimes, I feel like I am drowning in my self-doubt. It’s sad, I know but, I am trying to get better. Slowly, slowly, I can be happy.” – lyrics

‘Happy With Myself’ tells a heartfelt tale about a guy who desires to have confidence in himself and his abilities. Apparently, he’s unhappy and feels his self-doubt is causing him to dig his own grave. Later, he admits, “I always thought that it was the strength and not the struggle, but it takes more than that to be happy with myself.”

‘Happy With Myself’ contains a mental-health narrative, pleasing vocals, and tuneful melodies that will resonate well with fans of John Mayer. The likable tune possesses guitar-laden instrumentation flavored with an emotional indie-pop vibration. Furthermore, “Happy With Myself” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Philip Bowen in the near future as he continues to release new music.

“I can’t wait to break this chain, so I can finally be free. Lose the most to gain it all, hopefully, and be happy with myself.”
