Dead Inside

You know what I am
Some call it "sexy"
Don't mean that I can't be something deadly
Even if I'm an exotic dancer
For this one, I'm gonna keep my pants up
Doesn't mean that I'm not sexy
Even when I feel empty (don't do it)

I'm feeling fresh, you feel the vibe?
You're looking less, so look alive
My feathered feet are feeling fly
These streets ain't clean, but I keep my stride
You wanna taste? Come take a bite
Don't fake it, make it smile wide
Go with the flow, just ride the tide
Ladies good luck staying dry

Now let it rock, don't let it slide
Doesn't matter whether you're black or white
Through thick and thin, I've kept my pride
That confidence is a mask (I lied)

And my disguise is my swag
Kinda feels like I'm in drag
But I got nothing left to hide
So I'll let it out (I'm dead inside)

Ah, I'm tryna stay positive
But honestly with the walking dead out there
It's like, "What's the point?"
And you know what? I'm gonna say it, dude
This city sucks!
It's so hard to get around
The infrastructure was bad enough before the apocalypse
But I'm gonna stay positive!

Because I wanna live it large
Like every day
LA's the place to do it
Or so they say

Ready, set, then ignite
You want a smoke? Come get a light
This party's on, undead invited
Even if I leave your head divided
My stream is up, go spread the hype
Need a quick vibe check? Don't let it die
You know my style is fresh and fly
No more slumming gentrified

Was that a shock electrified
Hit a quick bump to get me right
I'm a little hot-blooded and the temp is rising
It ain't quite dawn, but the dead are rising

Mental health, plentified
Problems all identified
Promise y'all, I said I'm fine
I guess I lied (I'm dead inside)

Full disclosure before the outbreak, I was going to therapy
Then my therapist tried to eat me
So please, just give me a little fucking space
Because it's been really awful
Trying to navigate that while dealing with a worldwide apocalypse
But I'm gonna stay positive!

We don't mean to pester, just let us inside
Don't let your problems fester 'cause from them, you can't hide
Stomp us into paste, or tear us limb from limb
Luckily these fallen angels will forgive you of your sins

I'm the last bastion of hope
To the infection, I am immune
With all the bravery that I have shown
It's finally time to speak my truth

Let it out, don't let it hide
Show 'em how you're dead inside
Get it out, and spread it wide
Ain't no doubt, you're dead inside
Step on out, step with pride
Don't show despair, instead delight
You heard it here, I said it right
Is that clear? (I'm dead inside)
