For years, even before 2019
I always wore a mask
Just to hide my true self
Cause I had to pretend that everything was perfectly fine
Even though in all reality I was dying on the inside
People have told me though out my life to smile
Even my therapist said if I showed my teeth more my life would be so much better
No one knows me or even cared to bother
Everyone just the persona I been personifying for so long
But this is my story on how I been smiling on the outside
Smiling everyday
Holding in all this pain
That’s lingering all around me
I’m drowning in purple card
That are telling me how to live
Always saying to smile
Smile
Smile
Smile
Oh no no no
You’re gonna have to pay the price if you don’t smile
And smile
And smile
Everybody telling me that I have to smile
I’m tired of living in this illusion of perfect world
You have to show your teeth and make a pretty face
Cause that’s what they teach us at a young age
Saying that smiling will cover up our flaws
Well I’m just sick of faking smile
Always have to smile
I’m sick of smiling all the time
Have to smile
Always to have smile
I don’t want to smile
Always have to smile
Well I don’t want to smile
