When someone tells you who they are, you'd better believe em When someone tells you who they are, you better believe em When someone tells you you're worthless, don't try to deceive them Just say if that's how you're feeling then I'm fucking leaving Your armor makes you weaker You go out looking for a battle and I bet you've always found it Cause now I know the secret The only power you have's when the wall's already down But I bought the illusion, got lost in confusion I'd pocket my two cents, and all just to prove that I knew how to suffer well Disregarded the clues that were obvious to Anybody who ever met you I'd argue dispute any charges they drew Oh my god this is stupid cause I don't wanna suffer well And f*ck you for asking I've never been perfect but I've been happy But I guess your crown of thorns is still a crown, huh? Any way to make sure that you're always looking down huh? With a head so full of shit-you can hardly hear a sound huh? You ain't Atlas bitch, you're Narcissus - f*ck yourself and drown Cause it won't be long before we all know what you know And the world takes a match to its leech But there's hardly a move When the wrongs that you do Put up walls to the truth So appalled at the news That the scars and abuse You wrote off as good news Were just heartless and crude Just a coffin, a tomb From this god misconstrued That sounds awfully like you The J. Cochrane of pews Who was liable to use Any lies and pursuit Just to hide and excuse All the nonsense that's spewed All designed to reduce Beating hearts to mere fumes No more fire or fuel No more spark in the gloom Just a darkness that looms I could honestly puke at the thought of you Screw you from all of us who have been caught in your noose, f*ck It all feels like a flashback But this pen's emotional hazmat That'll take more shots than a lab rat Til it's not just after the fall that we understand that When someone tells you who they are, you'd better believe em When someone tells you who they are, you better believe em When someone tells you you're worthless, don't try to deceive them Just say if that's how you're feeling then I'm fucking leaving Mama told me not to worry about the sparkle in your eyes Keep my hands out of your pockets and my tongue away from lies So I kissed you on the first date When I probably should've tried To recognize that you were flying flags I could never abide Still you fly em, got me hanging out here sideways With my tinted rosy shades What do you say to all the silence We're too safe to coincide Too dangerous, too arrogant Too much like bourbon over ice Let me inside, I'll keep you warm I'll light your fire, I frighten easily I think that's why I rushed to say I love you Cause you came on strong and then cooled off Scared me, you called me special Call me perfect, told me everything that I've ever done was worth it You're the only certain circus Cut the act I think I've heard it Shit you hurt me, why'd you grab me quite so roughly Let go, I love you baby Don't run out the door abruptly Slam the damn thing, never slam the doors I hear my mother speaking If you're angry when she hurts you Change the tone with which you're pleading Don't be needy, don't have needs Don't ask for things You spent the week's allotted cash on cigarettes instead of dreams You're such a fucking piece of trash Now how are we supposed to last She never really wants an answer Just some noises while she packs I guess I told her that was that and Then I found someone else to ask But I won't come back, no I won't be back No, I won't come back, You gotta see that I gotta get right, keep my chin up high Turn the left cheek when you slap my right Clench my teeth but you won't see me cry Release all the anger that I kept inside You'll always cast shadows when you're in the light Trying to keep my head straight late at night and I don't believe the things that you believe about me No, I don't wanna die Still, it's a grind, left foot right foot Til I get to where I'm going Never knowing where I'm headed Pushed by winds wherever blowing Time keeps pushing on One second per second later, accelerator Forward progress is still progress; If you meet a girl you don't have to date her Still, I bet I'll find me a woman who doesn't hate my stinking guts A person who can express their love Without anybody getting slugged A person who might chase me down the road In the winter when the air is getting cold To make sure I've got my winter coat If I'm ugly hurting they'll pull me close Maybe they'll bring coffee to my desk or Write me notes or tell me yes They'd love to meet my folks and friends We're more than friends, I almost know But I don't need your new edition I add up to something great Any person who can count their stars Can always change their fate And I don't say shit just to say it I'm not praying, I'm not basic This ain't a cry for help, I'm patient I won't let myself get complacent I don't need your definition, hopes and dreams, or conversation I could give a damn about you, if anything it's motivation I'm gon make it out of this neighborhood The whole damn world can hear me say it I'm cool AF Go f*ck yourself If you have any questions, just replay this
