Mask Back On

© Exidious 2025 _____________ ‼️- https://x.com/ExidiousMusic ‼️- https://www.youtube.com/@TKProductionz ‼️- https://spoti.fi/3XHyuuZ _____________ Woke up feelin' like the floor dead eyes, cold room, same war Drag myself up, fake breath in Mask back on, let the day begin Smile tight, like it ain’t cracked Talk soft, don’t let ‘em ask 'Cause if they knew what’s underneath might flinch, might leave, might not speak I been off, man — not quite right Sleep’s a joke, brain’s all fight Checked my phone — no one's checked in Guess I hide it well, guess I win, But it’s weird how I catch every shift in their moods, in how they drift but no one catches the drag in me like I’m just part of scenery I want to be seen not scanned I want to be heard not planned But I let the mask slip so I grip it tighter force that grin burnin’ quieter Feels like I’m slippin’ inside my own head Nothin’ hits right, just gray instead Two years deep in weight I never dropped And now it’s crashin’ — all of it, no stop I laugh on cue, like I’m okay nod through the noise, play the game but I’m sinkin’ — slow slide don’t even know where help would hide People say “reach out” — but to who? No one sees when I’m not me too Like if I’m quiet, it’s just my thing not a signal, not a silent scream So I scroll, I type, I delete Mask back on, repeat repeat Still here, still stuck, still breathin’ But inside — I’m barely keepin’ (I’m barely keepin’)
