Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Dark songs the only thing that my heart sings

Optimism get weighed down by my broken dreams

First 20 I learned the rules and I played along

Second 20 I figured out ALL that shit was wrong

Maintaining identity is such a lonely game

Get resented by people who feel like they had to change

What's worse? The expectation of a true religion

Or the part where you expect the truth to make a difference

Numbers, data, and algorithms; them our new messiahs

Flawed tools to reinforce confirmation bias

We ignore what they really mean cuz it's too intense

Uncommon courtesy more important than common sense

Act sus when I'm discussed you get butterflies

Mouth say I'm welcome your vibe tell me otherwise

I ain't dumb, I know we workin for your meal ticket

I'll help you make your bubble but I'm not gone live in it

Hook

Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Dark songs my heart sings, they so out of tune

Breezes from whispers hit my back when I leave the room

Loyalty is a mind fuck, do it make sense

Fighting for people who reject you every chance they get?

Progress that people witness is a gift and curse

Weight lifts, from your shoulders but now it's in your words

Old jokes turn into thorns and they soul bleed

How you gone act like you don't know me?

But God love me, the streets raised me

I work smart while my opps play crazy

Shelter my girls from the world, yes I do

So when life kick they ass memories might get em through

Ain't no sunshine in this heart of mine, yeah it's true

But some pieces of these shadows were contributed by you

So the least you could do, put your pride to the side

Shine a light on all these demons in my eyes

Bobbin they head cuz

Dark songs the only thing that my heart sings

Optimism is weighed down by my broken dreams

First 20 I learned the rules and I played along

Second 20 I figured out ALL that shit was wrong

Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

The energy it takes to be calm is exhausting

I'd more relaxed if I lost it

Give these blessings back if you told me what they costed

I don't wanna see it, I get nauseous, I'm leaving

Don't get it confused I'm out but I'm not down

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here

Everybody seem to get along when I'm not around

Clearly I'm toxic, (so) I'll be over here
