Machete (Song for Jackson)

This is me, this is really me
Call it like you feel it, baby, tell me what you see
I am self eware enough to know I cut deep
When I'm stressin and aggressive and I'm too afraid to think
About the long run
I know I'm mean and I know you try
To evoid my wrath so you dry your eyes
It's unclear why you spend your time
With someone like me
Maybe you love me, or maybe you just fake it
Cuz I'm reckless in these sheets and I convinced you I'ma make it
But it doesn't seem so easy on this road that I've been taken and
I would be a liar if I said I wasn't shaken
But my heart is a machete clearing branches as I go
But you don't feel no momentum when the goins this slow
I'm tryna move faster cuz I'm scared you're catching up
I feel you nippin at my heels I know you're gonna call my bluff
See you don't need me
That you can outcompete me
Been free to leave me
Baby please don't deceive me

And all my life
Wanted to be anybody anybody else
But in your eyes
I can finally see myself
And for the very first time
Don't wanna be anybody anybody else
For the very first time
I just wanna be, you make me wanna be myself
