Brutal

I'm smiling
You buy it
I say congratulations
I'm jealous when I see you win

No really
You earned this
Those numbers just confirm it
I'm lying through my teeth again

And they should know you're the best
As long as
I'm better
Went to your show just to check
What you did wrong

My insecurity's brutal
I hear my voice and I cringe
I need somebody's approval now
'Cause I'm too proud to see you win

Reaction
No passion
They said my songs don't say much
Tell me if this one says enough

Took like 4 years
To make this
I think it makes sense I hate it
Is it bad or is it bad luck

And they should know I'm the best
I only
Get better
Put one hand up just to prove
I do no wrong

My insecurity's brutal
I hear my voice and I cringe
I need somebody's approval now
'Cause I'm too proud to see you win

Who else do you know
Does it like this
Sing sad songs
Pretend I'm being honest
Everyone I know
Is better than this
Sing sad songs
Look how good my art is

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
Yeah!
Shut up

My insecurity's brutal
I hear my voice and I cringe
I need somebody's approval now
'Cause I'm too proud to see you win
