Pretending

I'm tired of pretending So tired of pretending So tired of pretending to be What you want from me What you want from me I'm tired of pretending So tired of pretending So tired of pretending to be What you want from me What you want from me Everybody is a critic Everybody got opinion Everybody want the best for you Or testing you Or keep you from the decimals Ya mind ain't with it Ya body about to quit it You been carrying the weight Of the expectations Everybody saying that you can't complain Now you crying in the mirror Only place with no interference Only damn place where ya face the clearest Tongue trying speak but it's incoherent Broke ya new mood ring Sensory overload, need a new brain Tryna understand the feeling That the truth bring Cuz the truth ain't nothing more Than a couple new touchés Gonna learn how to handle it all Bike broke, back pedal Gotta cancel the fall, uh Nothing good when the Pride get involved So afraid to get help When the climate is off And the heat build up Feel real stuck So much pressure And you finna blow up And you lose yo cool Who loves you? Simplest thing Baby, two plus two I'm tired of pretending So tired of pretending So tired of pretending to be What you want from me What you want from me They just wanna see ya face In exasperation Crawling in the dirt Like you can't replace this Pristine, Sistine Michelangelo style Get ya nunchucks out And break things You don't need ESP To predict things Gotta make ends To get on the big screen While they watch from the sidelines It's ok, the attention ain't like mine See I understand Every damn move always need a plan Pressure on me reach 100 percent I'm under command Of a spirit that Been leading with a gun in his hand Telling me if I fell down now I'll be less of a man In the night time No other voice speaks here besides mine That's why it still sits In the back of my mind I'm tired of pretending So tired of pretending So tired of pretending to be What you want from me What do you want from me?
