Another One Down

It's too many different spirits within me

My personality is constantly shiftin'

I'm the most humble, but act different next minute

I'll admit it, I'm twisted

Tell me to act innocent, on my living sisters, I kill it

On the TV, I kill it, when you meet me, I kill it

There, dead ass, and to the point we get to speakin', I kill it

Looks are deceiving, no kidding, they make a fool of you, kid

In life, you only as real as your jewelry, kid

But we all have our days and we all have our ways

Different character traits, we all have a part to play

We all got something to say, a piece of me I can share

The rest of me I'm ashamed to show, I pretend it ain't there

So I pretend to be open, I pretend to be clear

To the piece of you that's probably just pretendin' to care

When there's a piece of you judgin' me, I can hear it in there

Hidin' from the piece of me that a piece of you fears, go

Words that fly right out of my mouth

Are not as good as they sound

You pick it up where I put it down

I'm not as good as you think

I'm not as good as you think

You just another one down

You just another one down, yeah

Another one down

You have to see where I'm coming from

To get what I'm gunning for

I'd have to open up my heart and show you a couple swords

But until you uncover yours, I'm overprotective with that

I won't let you touch the soul, I won't let you judge the core

I'm sensitive, I know betrayal like I know my siblings

Like an insecure girlfriend knows a hickey

So it's hard to know which person to trust

So when you ask me about the personal stuff

My response is always good as scripted

I choose to trust, I don't owe it no one

Figured I might just be better off as a loner

This crazy world's gettin' colder and colder

I had to learn to dress my persona

I had to put him in a happy suit

Too many told me, "Stay humble

That's all we ask of you"

I'm learning life now, and it feels like I'm back in school

Somebody should've told me being human needed practice, too

Words that fly right out of my mouth

Are not as good as they sound

You pick it up where I put it down

I'm not as good as you think

I'm not as good as you think

You just another one down

You just another one down

Another one down

Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Woo-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ah

Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Yeah, live from London, man
