Take Off Your Mask

Not even long ago
I used to be vulnerable
They used to say
Shut your mouth stay in line stop bein you
Unbraid your braids stop acting gay
I'm driving crazy ma belle (Just shake it)
All those empty voices (You'll fail it)
I cried wasted tears you're a baby)
But kept doin' me (You'll end lonely)

I won't be stuck in bad memories
Cause I won't be the same
And mama look what you have raised

Take off your mask wipe off your tears
Take off your mask stop hiding yourself
Take off your mask embrace yourself
Take off your mask you're beautiful

Fake smile on the school portrait
Made me feel like I'm unwanted
My peoples asking me what's wrong
But I don't tell em to much
Cause deep down they listen but don't give a fuck
They say I give a fuck bro
Reality they'll fuck you up
Now watch me reaching all of ma dreams
Nobody will ever understand me
Where I came from what I've been through
Made me stronger and focused my view
One thing I know for sure
That my mom will always be proud of me
That's the only thing matters to me
So keep talking like a weak puppy

I won't be stuck in bad memories
Cause I won't be the same
And mama look what you have raised

Take off your mask wipe off your tears
Take off your mask stop hiding yourself
Take off your mask embrace yourself
Take off your mask you're beautiful
