Pretending
I'm tired of pretending
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What you want from me
I'm tired of pretending
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What you want from me
Everybody is a critic
Everybody got opinion
Everybody want the best for you
Or testing you
Or keep you from the decimals
Ya mind ain't with it
Ya body about to quit it
You been carrying the weight
Of the expectations
Everybody saying that you can't complain
Now you crying in the mirror
Only place with no interference
Only damn place where ya face the clearest
Tongue trying speak but it's incoherent
Broke ya new mood ring
Sensory overload, need a new brain
Tryna understand the feeling
That the truth bring
Cuz the truth ain't nothing more
Than a couple new touchés
Gonna learn how to handle it all
Bike broke, back pedal
Gotta cancel the fall, uh
Nothing good when the
Pride get involved
So afraid to get help
When the climate is off
And the heat build up
Feel real stuck
So much pressure
And you finna blow up
And you lose yo cool
Who loves you?
Simplest thing
Baby, two plus two
I'm tired of pretending
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What you want from me
They just wanna see ya face
In exasperation
Crawling in the dirt
Like you can't replace this
Pristine, Sistine
Michelangelo style
Get ya nunchucks out
And break things
You don't need ESP
To predict things
Gotta make ends
To get on the big screen
While they watch from the sidelines
It's ok, the attention ain't like mine
See I understand
Every damn move always need a plan
Pressure on me reach 100 percent
I'm under command
Of a spirit that
Been leading with a gun in his hand
Telling me if I fell down now
I'll be less of a man
In the night time
No other voice speaks here besides mine
That's why it still sits
In the back of my mind
I'm tired of pretending
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What do you want from me?
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What you want from me
I'm tired of pretending
So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What you want from me
Everybody is a critic
Everybody got opinion
Everybody want the best for you
Or testing you
Or keep you from the decimals
Ya mind ain't with it
Ya body about to quit it
You been carrying the weight
Of the expectations
Everybody saying that you can't complain
Now you crying in the mirror
Only place with no interference
Only damn place where ya face the clearest
Tongue trying speak but it's incoherent
Broke ya new mood ring
Sensory overload, need a new brain
Tryna understand the feeling

Cuz the truth ain't nothing more

So tired of pretending
So tired of pretending to be
What you want from me
What do you want from me?
