Trust Fall

[Intro] Trust fall, yeah, watch me crash and burn Thought you had my back, now I learned Sarah Chen, yeah, that name still stings Smile in my face while you pull them strings [Verse 1] Back against the wall, arms crossed tight Thought we were family, shit wasn't right You smiled in my face while plotting my demise Now I'm free falling through these toxic lies Growing up different, always had to fight For a seat at the table, trying to feel alright But you saw my struggle as a fucking game Used my story, left me drowning in shame Every "wallah" that you mocked behind closed doors Every time you made my culture your damn show I was blind, yeah, I couldn't even see How you weaponized my vulnerability [Chorus] Who catches you when you fall? When your back's against the wall Who catches you when you fall? Nobody, nobody at all Trust fall, watch me hit the ground In this city, ain't no friends around Trust fall, now I know the truth These snakes smile while they showing their tooth [Verse 2] Remember when you said "we're all the same"? But treated my existence like it's your shame Posted pictures, called me "brother" online But whispered jokes about my kind Now I'm calculating every single move 'Cause one slip up and they'll make the news Of another immigrant who couldn't hang Another outsider who missed the game F*ck your performative friendship show You're just another face in this circus, yo Got me questioning every damn "hello" Every smile just feels like another low blow [Bridge] Free falling through the darkness now No safety net, just showing how These streets will teach you what's real These snakes will show you how to feel [Chorus] Who catches you when you fall? When your back's against the wall Who catches you when you fall? Nobody, nobody at all Trust fall, watch me hit the ground In this city, ain't no friends around Trust fall, now I know the truth These snakes smile while they showing their tooth [Outro] Sarah Chen, I hope you hear this track Each bar is another knife in the back Trust fall, yeah, I hit that ground But I'm standing up, and I'm still around
