Forcing A Smile
Enough time has passed where I'm beginning to see
I hate more than half the choices I make
And that's less and less of a fluke than a consistency
I'm just dying to break me
Stop telling me to act differently
As if I don't mean anything
And I can only be what you see for me
Stop telling me Stop telling me
Cuz I never am the man they want me to be
And you all hate it when I'm genuinely me
So I'm stuck between who I am
And who I'm supposed to be
Stop telling me to act differently
As if I don't mean anything
And I can only be what you see for me
Stop telling me Stop telling me
Forced to fake a smile and sport a Venetian
Lost myself for awhile just trying to fit in
And I'm growing tired of your expectations
And the double standards you force me to live with
I can't be what I want or what you need
I can't be what I want or what you need
If it's alright by you I'll just be me
I hate more than half the choices I make
And that's less and less of a fluke than a consistency
I'm just dying to break me
Stop telling me to act differently
As if I don't mean anything
And I can only be what you see for me
Stop telling me Stop telling me
Cuz I never am the man they want me to be
And you all hate it when I'm genuinely me
So I'm stuck between who I am
And who I'm supposed to be
Stop telling me to act differently
As if I don't mean anything
And I can only be what you see for me
Stop telling me Stop telling me
Forced to fake a smile and sport a Venetian
Lost myself for awhile just trying to fit in
And I'm growing tired of your expectations
And the double standards you force me to live with
I can't be what I want or what you need
I can't be what I want or what you need
If it's alright by you I'll just be me
