The Real Me

What took you so long with the album
I had to get the features, aye
I couldn't of done it without them
Ok and where's the album
It's in my hardrive, just leave me alone you guys
We will not leave you alone
For your sins you have to atone
What are you talking about
You know what we're talking about
Do I have to say it out loud
The lying, and cheating, and stealing, and abuse
You know you did it there is no doubt
Ok, ok, ok, ok
Seriously you guys really don't have to shout

I kind of think we do (what)
Let's take you through everything
Look, Shame has a map he drew
Can I just leave
That is a no-can-do
Look at you
Thinking you can have done this
Without your mind exposing you
Come on let go here are your shoes
The train is about to leave, choo-choo
What?
You heard what I said, onomatopoeia
God I wish I was dead
Come on we're just in your head

Haven't you ever noticed
How every couple of years you have a new friend group
Yeah
It's like your life is a loop, a hula hoop
That holds your crew but then it breaks and they're over you
Over me? What does that have to do with anything that goes on inside my brain

Oh, this is just the start of it
You don't want us to get serious
Oh god
Remember when you were younger and you had to hide your wrists you slit

What, how do you know about that
We know about everything
We're your internal being
We know all about you
Your highs, your lows, and everything else
that has turned you into who you are today
So Delaine, how was your day
Weren't you out, driving around from town to town until you got out of your head
Don't you just wish you were dead
Sometimes
Don't you just wish you were dead
I said sometimes
Come on, answer the question
Sometimes

Yes that's it, expose your truths
You started to realize that you're about to bloom
You don't need this costume
Cause the people have just consumed who you really are
What will they think
Will they still care, will they be there
Honestly, at this point, I don't even care
Oh you definitely do

You're a people pleaser
You know it's true
you please these people without caring about the ones you screw, over
Over and over, again and again
At some point the facade will have to end
Look up ahead there is a bend
You can go left with lie's or to the right with what you know is right
Why don't we make them blend, and go straight ahead
to whatever path we want
I can't let people control me
I have to be the real me
Not the fake me that likes to please
Because I know that's how it goes
That's just growing up
I gotta quit being a chump
That was corny

That's who I am
Especially when I used to post on Instagram
It's like I was at Disney
They were so goofy
But as I got older life would confuse me
Then then I started to drink
And I got all boozy
And I thought
If there was a gun in my hand
Would it be Call of Duty
Or would I have asked someone to shoot me
I don't know
But I gotta quit this facade
Gotta show the real me
Gotta show the real me
