[Lil Kydd]
I don't wear my heart on a sleeve;
And my emotions ain't no open book
s** it up. You're around your friends so make certain;
They don't see the bitter kid sitting behind the crimson curtain
They all know you as the positive kid;
Glimmer all in his oculars and good nature amid
Still a little bit of resentment finds a home in my stomach;
I should've brought some swim trunks, a shovel and a bucket
With a group of new unfamiliar faces;
We exit the railways after depositing our ticket payments
Seventy plus degrees and the outing is underway;
Steve Jobs in my left ear and the feeling is still staying
My hands aching. Don't wanna let them see the hurt;
After two of my adolescent years you threw in the dirt
I made an effort to clean every cranny and nook;
Through the efforts of slow rhythms and stupid catchy hooks
But look. A friend speaks and I wipe the wrinkled brow away;
I promised moms I wouldn't let what's in the past affect my day
Seven hundred and thirty of those and change;
I'm not gonna cry about it like a weakling or a lame
Cuz I was told that I gotta brave it and fake a happy face;
Hopefully the acid in my cavity evaporates
Cuz you ain't careful, some girls will make fun of your sour grapes;
Decapitate your cardiovascular on a paper plate
I'm not gonna try and front like I'm the hardest;
But Im'ma bury all my sorrows up inside my art
If it dulls the searing flesh and conceals emotional scarring;
I'll work myself into the ground right next to where my heart is
Snap out of it. Ain't you having a good time?
Look into your phone notes and write a couple rhymes
Your going to the beach with your crew;
So put the smile back on, fake it to make it and hopefully you'll be fine
...And there goes that metra jingle;
Put your emotions away, remember that you're single
It's a beautiful day;
You know you got a lot going for you. So go out and mingle
You're a pretty decent package
So why'd you leave the house and carry all this extra baggage;
How unattractive...
The sun beats down
Everybody's hot but me and I'm sporting an autumn jacket
[Hook]
And it's all in the name of getting over you;
And all of our mutual friends avoiding me too (x4)
