[Verse 1]
Yeah I deal with self-hate
Pick myself apart in the mirror till it breaks
Scrolling through my flaws like a feed I can’t escape
Every angle
Every angle
Every angle feels fake

Yeah
My stupid image
Every little comment got me running like a scrimmage
Smiling in the photos
But I’m dying in the frame
Trying to be a person
They just memorize a name

[Chorus]
I been doing this my whole life
You just see the highlight
You don’t see the nights I
Bleed into the page
Trying to make my mind right (mind right)
I been wrestling with my own face
Living in a cold place
You just see a cold case
You don’t see the hand that keeps my heart in a choke chain

[Verse 2]
Mama said I’m gifted
I just feel defective when my mood gets twisted
Therapy on Tuesdays
Jokes on Thursdays
Laugh it all away then I crash by Friday

Friends say
“You’re killing it”
I just hear a voice in my head that’s militant
Telling me I’m nothing
Telling me I’m bluffing
Tell me would you love me if you saw the whole suffering? (tell me)

[Chorus]
I been doing this my whole life
You just see the highlight
You don’t see the nights I
Bleed into the page
Trying to make my mind right (mind right)
I been wrestling with my own face
Living in a cold place
You just see a cold case
You don’t see the hand that keeps my heart in a choke chain

[Bridge]
What if I’m enough
Even when I’m cracked?
What if every scar is a map back?
I’m scared to believe it
Scared I’ll relapse
But I’m so tired of the voice that attacks

[Chorus]
I been doing this my whole life
You just see the highlight
You don’t see the nights I
Bleed into the page
Trying to make my mind right (mind right)
I been learning how to show grace
Even in my own space
Look into the mirror
Say
“I’m more than the weight of every word that I can’t erase”
