Hide & Seek ft. Clara Helms Lyrics

This is my life take a peek

It's looking like rinse repeat 7 days of the week

One thing I know don't look don't speak

Don't breathe just dot your i's and cross your t's

Trying to appease others

Acting like others mothers

When I'd rather be catching REM sleep undercovers

Fine line between the public and private

Faces I'm showing the people I'm knowing

But really who are we trynna impress

When all the hoops that I jump through are making me stress

What's the deal tell me can I make it a meal

Got lies with my fries picking at them with a fork in the road

Busy doing what I'm told

But is it better like this cause it's a devil I know

Putting on a façade that will make me look clever

Now I'm faking a smile trying to hold it together couldn't be better

Stop playing hide and seek

I see you're growing weak

Come out from where you're hiding

Use your words wisely

Just speak

Hiding behind an M A S K

Afraid of the light moving in shadows by day

But being stuck in the dark isn't good for a girl

Trynna leave her mark standing on top of the world

Staying true to herself having honest opinions

Second fiddle to blending in like a minion

This is important so she needs you to listen

Let's break it down gonna need you to wake up eh eh

Nobody can tell me who I am

I'm cutting these strings on the back of my head

As I lay on this desk

Epiphany or distress

Was it something I said

Can I call this fate

It's a lesson I guess oh yes a lesson well spent

Understanding that I could be

All the things that I wanna be

To my family and friends

Keeping my feet on the ground

Something money can't buy that's true wealth shoutout

New vision new sounds

Break away from a culture that kept her down

Plus the things that you want

Things that you need

You might need to transplant a new personality

I think I've paid my dues caught up on sleep

Next step for now for me just speak

Let's break it down gonna need you to wake up

Let's break it down gonna need you to wake up

I think it's time for you to fix that crown

If you waste your time it will crash to the ground

Hard work and sacrifice

To make it to the top

Draining all yourself

Before you drop

Just speak

Stop playing hide and seek

I'm running but I won't be caught now

I see you're growing weak

My crowns gonna shine so brightly

Come out from where you're hiding

Use your words wisely

Just speak
