Lyrics

It's kinda funny to me
They always call you crazy for telling the truth but they never call you a liar
I guess it is kinda crazy to tell the truth in an age where everybody is fake and lies are how we relate
They pretend like we're friends when we're face to face
But behind my back they hate me
Trying their best to spread lies, steal, cheat, prove that I'm the same
Do their best to discount each other's reputations
It's character assassination, and I don't wanna be part of it
Fake friends, save face, try to be vulnerable and get burned
It doesn't hurt, another lie to tell yourself
Stand up, be brave, don't hide the stories on your page, and start a new one
I just wanna see the world more authentic.
Every day you wake up, and hide your face cuz you hate yourself
Just chasing a fake ambrosia, a little dose of the future hell
The demand becoming greater as you try to fill the crater in your soul
Chasing worldly pleasure is the measure of a broken man
Instant gratification marked for verification
Rob the small creatives, kill them off cuz they don't understand
How you can use their dues for a blue hue
Checking marks for genius is a fiendish kind of reprimand
Personal perfidy started with content perjury
The fix is your expression of authentic love and direction instead of growing your X and your Instagram
How did we all buy into this fad
It doesn't even matter anyway
Life is more than just the likes you've had
It doesn't even matter anyway
Fake friends, save face, try to be vulnerable and get burned
It doesn't hurt, another lie to tell yourself
Stand up, be brave, don't hide the stories on your page, and start a new one
I just wanna see the world more authentic.
I'm just gon' be me
I'll just be authentically me
Authentic
I'm just gon' be me
ooo
I'll be authentically me
More authentic.
