about

putting alllllll my shit out there on this track, this is definitely for me not so much for you

lyrics

IS IT REAL?

I was born as a joke
Into a backdrop that didn’t know what is love

Eternally scared
A nail in the stairs
No luck on the draw
A card dealt by mistake

Neighborhoods fucked
Got beat down a lot
Filled my head with constant violence and rage

Took twenty seven years
To address the fear
Choke the drugs and thoughts of suicide

Now I feel stronger
But I strung you along
I’m sorry, I thought that I could love too

I guess that I lied
Still dead inside
How can I love if I’ve never seen love before

I’ve never seen love before…

Take a look into what I’m thinking
Step inside my head
I’m thinking die
I feel insane

Take a look into what I’m thinking
Cut into my brain
Take out a slice

I want this the most
Love this the most
To feel good about myself
To feel good about myself
Cause it’s not safe inside my head
No it’s not safe inside my head
But I feel good about myself
Yeah I will feel good about myself
Yeah I will feel good about myself
I feel good (end with the harmonic minor because it’s unsure)
