I'm a Realist

Another day Another year Of hoping that tomorrow, someday The future will hold something great, I'll be okay And I hope, should I pray? That I won't fall Never say never is what they say Tomorrow will be a better day Everything happens for a reason But the reason never comes And I'll wishfully follow but disappointment I'm tired of performative optimism Give me the truth I don't like living in the unknown I never thought I'd say I never thought I'd say this I never thought I'd say... I'm a realist I feel like I'm living in the darkest timeline Things just have a way of going down (Oh) in time (In time) I sit at home and micro-dose on dopamine Do you know what I mean? When I say Oh, when I say I'm tired of performative optimism Give me the truth I don't like living in the unknown I never thought I'd say I never thought I'd say this I never thought I'd say... I'm a realist I'm tired of performative optimism Give me the truth I don't like living in the unknown I never thought I'd say I never thought I'd say this I never thought I'd say... I'm a realist Oooh Give me the truth I don't like living in the unknown I never thought I'd say I never thought I'd say this I never thought I'd say... I'm a realist
