Therapist here: What he's doing is very healthy and we need more artists like him to work with the ideas in this song. He's basically doing parts of self work, exploring the effects of toxic masculinity on one's ability to work with the self, how to care for one's more difficult parts as hard or "shameful" as they can be, and build a sense of resiliency through difficult experiences. When you constantly run from yourself, you'll always be a stranger to yourself: you can't care for, fix something you're not aware of. Dope song.

Khalid is so talented. I hope he isn’t suicidal or depressed like these lyrics imply. I imagine his quick rise to fame leaves him under a lot of pressure daily. I hope he has a good group of supportive people around him and that he knows his fans love him, his music, and the beauty it brings into the world. Such a gift 💕

[Verse 1]
I've ran away from love
It's gettin' hard for me to breathe
'Cause the man that I've been runnin' from is inside of me
I tell him, "Keep it quiet"
So all he does is speak
'Cause he wants to keep his distance
But it's hard for him to leave
He knows I hear him cryin'
Cryin' out for help
I don't know how to save him
I can't even save myself
There's many people dyin'
I've always been afraid
Not that I'm scared of livin'
I'm scared of feeling pain
[Chorus]
I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hm
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
[Verse 2]
I've been so used to winnin'
It was hard for me to lose
No, there's nothing wrong with me
There's just something wrong with you
So I've been making changes
Been workin' on my health
No more competition
Can't compete against myself, no, no, no
I'm not doin' this to be loved, no, no
I've been doin' this to be remembered
Let the people hear it if they want to
All the one's around me gettin' onto
If I die tomorrow and I'm gone
Let the blood run high
Let the carpets drown
I'll be forever numb
[Chorus]
I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hm
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hm
Always had a little trouble with self-reflections
[Outro]
Let this be a promise
That when it's said and done
Be a flower in a garden
Be born with the sun
Be born with the sun
Be born with the sun
Be born with the sun
Be born with the sun
