Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Dark songs the only thing that my heart sings
Optimism get weighed down by my broken dreams
First 20 I learned the rules and I played along
Second 20 I figured out ALL that shit was wrong
Maintaining identity is such a lonely game
Get resented by people who feel like they had to change
What's worse? The expectation of a true religion
Or the part where you expect the truth to make a difference

Numbers, data, and algorithms; them our new messiahs
Flawed tools to reinforce confirmation bias
We ignore what they really mean cuz it's too intense
Uncommon courtesy more important than common sense
Act sus when I'm discussed you get butterflies
Mouth say I'm welcome your vibe tell me otherwise
I ain't dumb, I know we workin for your meal ticket
I'll help you make your bubble but I'm not gone live in it

Hook
Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Dark songs my heart sings, they so out of tune
Breezes from whispers hit my back when I leave the room
Loyalty is a mind fuck, do it make sense
Fighting for people who reject you every chance they get?

Progress that people witness is a gift and curse
Weight lifts, from your shoulders but now it's in your words
Old jokes turn into thorns and they soul bleed
How you gone act like you don't know me?

But God love me, the streets raised me
I work smart while my opps play crazy
Shelter my girls from the world, yes I do
So when life kick they ass memories might get em through

Ain't no sunshine in this heart of mine, yeah it's true
But some pieces of these shadows were contributed by you
So the least you could do, put your pride to the side
Shine a light on all these demons in my eyes

Bobbin they head cuz
Dark songs the only thing that my heart sings
Optimism is weighed down by my broken dreams
First 20 I learned the rules and I played along
Second 20 I figured out ALL that shit was wrong

Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

The energy it takes to be calm is exhausting
I'd more relaxed if I lost it
Give these blessings back if you told me what they costed
I don't wanna see it, I get nauseous, I'm leaving

Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around
Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
