Don’t believe a word that I say
I’m just a liar and it’s safe to say
That I will bait and switch opinions, mirroring the image I think you want to see
Maybe therapy will keep me clean
Maybe prayer will heal all of my memories
Diagnose me, medicate me, anything to isolate me
Am I honestly what you’ve labeled me?
Or is this brokenness beautiful and unique?
I was born in the West, shaped by the internet
A generation raised fatherless
Hoping for bеtter days
Fill my script with artificial feelings
Rest well ‘causе you’re right about everything-
You see in me is how you want it to be seen
“I gotta get my, gotta get my high”
Check the boxes, compartmentalize
And trade our progress for the path of pride
What’s nuance? Everything is Black or White
Yet the world is on fire
Am I honestly what you’ve labeled me?
Or is this brokenness beautiful and unique?
I was born in the West, shaped by the internet
A generation raised fatherless
Hoping for better days
It is well with my soul
