If I'm bein' honest
I'm not who I was
Trying to pick the pieces of myself up off the floor
If I'm bein' honest
I hate who I am
Don't know how much longer I can take this anymore
This hurt, I can't ignore
Yeah, didn't think I'd say it, now I've said it
I'm not the type to hope for your pity so please forget it
Sometimes I wonder why my thoughts sound so loud, so desperate
It doesn't help some people around me are so infested
With lies and deceit, act like they're elite
No, you're obsolete, you'd better retreat
You say I am hopeless, I'm worthless, one disastrous mess
But how dare you sit there in your perverseness
Most days I feel I'm stuck in the middle, somewhere in between
'Cause neither side will ever love me unconditionally
And if they show compassion, then it's only temporarily
But if that's all they do, then is it done with true sincerity?
None of this seems clear to me
Think I need some clarity
I just crave transparency
This song is my therapy
Quit acting deplorably
Killing all prosperity
At least one thing's clear to me
I despise asperity
If I'm, if I'm, if I'm, if I'm
If I'm bein' honest
I'm not who I was
Trying to pick the pieces of myself up off the floor
If I'm bein' honest
I hate who I am
Don't know how much longer I can take this anymore
This hurt, I can't ignore
Another day, another episode
Is my life just a deadpan TV show?
I got somethin' no one can foreshadow
Like diving deeper when they throw the rope
Only survive 'cause old me turns up and makes a cameo
I put my hands together, pray to God, I hope He hears me
I'm sick to death of all this hate when you're the one who's guilty
Yeah, tell me, do you feel me?
How sick can your thick mind be?
You're prayin' on my downfall when only yours is guaranteed
My passion is music
Some say I abuse it
They can't reproduce it
I just can't excuse it
So no wonder I'mma
Lose it on myself, mental health
Deep down, I mean well
You know I can tell, there's no spell, you just put me through hell
Got no place to go (no place, no place, no place)
Feel it in my bones (I feel it)
If I'm bein' honest
If I'm bein' honest
I'm not who I was (I was)
Trying to pick the pieces of myself up off the floor (up off the floor)
If I'm bein' honest
I hate who I am (I am)
Don't know how much longer I can take this anymore
This hurt, I can't ignore
It's time to stop making one-sided efforts
Time to leave this truly-forsaken desert
A time to be real
And finally heal
If I'm bein' honest
