Fake it and charade
Faking - that’s your aim, right?

[Chorus]
I just wanna feel happy once again
I don’t wanna have to fake it or charade
What’s the point of clout if you got no real friends?
I don’t wanna have to fake it or charade
Why’s it feel like everybody
Else around me
Figured out their way
While I fake and charade?
Why’s it feel like everybody
Else around me
Figured out their way
While I fake and charade?

[Sample]
You must be from another world

[Verse]
The expectation’s so deep
Suffocating, now I’m choking
Medicate so I keep floating
But I leaned too much on the codeine
Can’t even start I’m still loading
Turned my page to the old leaf
I need new “Changes” like 2Pac
But how many times did you say that? A lot
I feel the anxiety
Wrapping me up in the irony
I show you the smiles
But keep the insidious
Hidden inside of me
I wanna live quietly
But afraid I’ll be missing out
They tell me get a grip
Hands on the wheel
But I feel like I’m spinning out
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Round and ‘round I go
In this rodeo
There’s no way out
I know your mind’s feeling terminal
Where’s the antidote?
I need a way out

[Chorus]
I just wanna feel happy once again
I don’t wanna have to fake it or charade
What’s the point of clout if you got no real friends?
I don’t wanna have to fake it or charade
Why’s it feel like everybody
Else around me
Figured out their way
While I fake and charade?
Why’s it feel like everybody
Else around me
Figured out their way
While I fake and charade?

[Sample]
Makes you wonder what the world’s coming to

[Verse]
Pressure make me wanna pop a pill
Lose a part of you for mass appeal
Chase a thrill and optimize your prime
Now I just wanna live with peace of mind
Drowned in my feelings I plop
Scared what I’ll find at the top
My head is barely above water
Steady breathing can’t falter
Everybody else is flying
Why can’t I scratch the horizon?
Instead of crying wanna thrive
God Almighty knows I’m trying
