Don't Try

I think that you got handsome written all about
(You) got me thinking over all the things I try
And when you're lying everywhere and all the time
Then I remember all the things I hate about me
Don't try to make me see what I despise
And yes we do create our little paradise

I'm trying to figure out
I'm looking all over and tryna catch a smile
Cause this shit's been on my mind
But I don't think you really get a second try

Don't try
Don't pick up the phone
Just stay with me at home
And don't give into that
Don't give into that

Don't try
Don't pick up the phone
Just stay with me at home

Y'all made me think about a lot lately
I'm scared I'm missing out on everything
The thought of revolution swept you off and made you bitter
Jealous of the lies you saw out there in Lima
I'll confess to being guilty on charges of mass confusion
Hell I'll even admit to using filters on my faces but so what

And I've been, I be, I be, I be missing
I lost all the confidence I never had and it is real sad
And I'm, and I'm, and I'm, and I'm hoping
To find it back where it was never let it go cause that would be sad

Don't try
(Don't pick up the phone)
I said don't pick up the phone
(Just stay with me at home)
Just stay with me at home

Don't try
Don't pick up the phone
Just stay with me at home

And I've been constantly thriving and struggling
Trying not to live the goddamn life
According to the you-know-what's and who-knows-when
And it probably won't stop until you never let it (get) in
Cause it started from everywhere social media's nightmare
I wish we could go back that'd make one less billionaire
Strangling puppets and acting like it's fair
Human rights violations but no
Just close your eyes and it'll disappear

Cumulus clouds, the sun is up and about
But y'all be really starring at a screen and bedroom ceiling
I thought that lockdown and insanity would make them
People see the worth of the simple things bless our planet let it be

Cause they want the fame minus the blame
They seek the shiny and poshy but never stick to the plan
Desire public to worship without secondary train of thoughts
Bullies will bully just get over, this (is) a fucking plot

Y'all really sure we're cool with the chosen track
Little kids are killing themselves and no one even reacted
Better just thrive in the crap, or be on top of it all
Hey Karen look at the view, I'm so happy with my new shoes

Okay well think about a thing
The little girl whose messed up skin is burning
So you could buy those insta clothes you wanted bad
But you don't wanna see that, cause it might make you cry
And the 40 dollar liner you might have to reapply

But don't get me wrong, I'm probably talking to myself
You probably are getting mad
But it's just my ego and nonsense talking crap, getting jealous
Trying to cover up the fact that I have insecurities
So I'm projecting like an ass

I'm not even mad at us, I'm mad at myself
Cuz took me that fucking long to cut the bullshit and realize
That I should be better, no I should do better
I'll shut my ego up next time and write a love letter

Don't try
Don't pick up the phone
Stay with me at home

Don't try
Don't pick up the phone
Stay with me at home
