lyrics

A rare occasion when I make confessions
facing rejection ain't my favorite
let alone breaking it to no strangers
on no instrumental paint the mental scene
beauty queen move that needle
my head and feet don't get the message
how the closed mouth gone be fed
she done left with someone else so now the pill you swallowing
something must be wrong wit me
swiss cheese confidences what women see intrinsically
in n***as they respond to it and I feel like I never had it
or I'm out of it

Don't feel bad for me someone gotta play the fool

And it get worse when you compare yo self to other n***as that can turn to jealousy not ashamed to tell you I
been there myself
to really think the feeling of not feeling good enough
was slowly killing me
and my dislike for envy turned me to my biggest enemy
and thats me tryna hype up myself silly me

You ain't got no bravado I'ma just
bravado I'ma just
bravado tell myself no before you get the chance
bravado I'ma just
bravado I'ma just tell myself no before you get the chance

I think my sensitivity one day
gone be the death of me
I mean it be the simple things
it may just be the way I think
sometimes I cringe at memories
a look could make us enemies
wit me a vibe is everything
and mine is fragile my ego tactile
cuz I been cracked on
the black child
the one with the fat nose you n***as got jokes
oh you mad now
I needed a back bone now
so fade to black now
where can't nobody roast cuz everything thing you say gone be the butt of someone jokes
the reason n***as think I'm strong and silent
hardly both the reason why i bite my tongue
the most felt like I knew what people thought of me
before they even talked to me
that's if they'd even talk to me
rejection wasn't lost one me
that's why I rap like it's Jesus bday
I gave n***as a voice that that had shit they needed to say shit you might needed to hear
shine when people giving you shade
and be kind but shy away from no fade
you see I wrote this shit in pen just so you won't erase it
I learned this shit the hard way
seem like the only way to learn
to learn the difference between growing and changing
both can save you
only shit that can hurt you is true in a way


Bravado n***as ain't
bravado n***as ain't
bravado n***as ain't laughing no more
bravado n***as ain't
bravado n***as ain't laughing no more
