With everything perfect
There’s never been a need for you to have to give
Any room for pause
When it’s not perfect
You point to all the other directions to divert from your
Failings and flaws
You want respect
You want to be loved
Even in light of your big mistake
But in the end, how can you give back
If all you know now is how to take
You’re not perfect
But none of us are, and for all of us it’s
Never been a big deal
So, don’t tell me what you think it is
That I want to hear
Tell me what’s real
Tell me what’s real
Coming from privilege
You can spin a lie, keeping it going as long as it
Makes you look good
Coming from privilege
You exaggerate everything hoping no one is
Looking under the hood
With values stilted and warped
You want everyone to buy in and agree
But how come you expect or even think
You could ever
Relate to me
Coming from privilege
There’s no way that someone like you could ever know
How I feel
So don’t blatantly lie to my face
Tell me what’s real
Yeah, tell me what’s real
You know you’re better
Better than others and it’s how you’ve coped with the
World thus far
You feel you’re better
And you over inflate yourself to look much bigger
Than you really are
And when they finally call you out
You call them liars
You call them fools
And if they persist because they’re right
You stop
Playing by the rules
You think you’re better
From that vantage point there’s no way you could
Ever know how I feel
So don’t tell me what it is that you think
I want to hear
Tell me what’s real
Yeah, tell me what’s real
