Yeah, this smile it's all pretence. I'm just frontin'
(Chorus)
Honey I am going down/ don't try and save me/ I'll just wear this smile and I'll pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2
pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2
(Verse 1 Sixfo)
Can I just throw in the towel already? Life is a merry-go-round but when it goes down I'm never merry/ never ready/ for all the disappointments that I'm handed/ they tell me just get over it cause they don't understand me/ she tells me I should just give it some time, and plenty/ but then I told her that I'm tryna be a star at 20 even though/ emotionally a nigga gotta grow/ I could grow another Amazon from all the seeds I've sown and it shows at the shows/ I'm exposed as I hope/ for the curtains to be closed/ so I can go home/ I would rather be alone/ prob'ly getting stoned like the girl from the bible/ but I could use a clone, you know/ somebody I could talk to/ someone who knows about the game and they could offer me a walk through/ these prying eyes disguise the white lies I've heard from guys who wish for my demise it's fine cause I'm - yeah
(Chorus)
Honey I am going down/ don't try and save me/ I'll just wear this smile and I'll pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2
pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2
(Verse 2 PDotO)
Uh
Look, if I'm only seeing pain I'mma talk about pain/ shit that goes without sayin'/ still tryna crack a smile/ why my poppa had to die/ losing hope without praying/ I'm a doc with no patience/ brand new escape/ open the medicine cabinet/ I'mma die and be a great 'cause my blessin' is accurate shit inadequate/ pump the chest up/ hope I double up/ fuck the rest, touch hearts yes watch me comin' up/ wow, I'm a soldier still going through it/ heavy weight on my shoulder got me lookin' foolish/ never break 'cause I'm stronger than the usual/ the proof is right in the pudding grab a spoon, bitch/ raise hell 'till they gimme what's mine/ alotta talent/ but only few feeling the shine/ stack chips I was saving for times like this/ even if you broke, make sure your kids divide I'm sayin'
(Chorus)
Honey I am going down/ don't try and save me/ I'll just wear this smile and I'll pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2
pretend like I'm happy,
happy x 2

(Chorus)
