JexT - Really Him

[Verse 1] Told myself I’d never make it here Now I’m signing merch with a cracked veneer Still double-checking every win Like maybe they meant someone else again I walk the stage, I hear my name Still feel like that kid just dodging shame Lights hit hard, the beat kicks in And I forget how it even begins [Pre-Chorus] I got the stats, got the stream But I still text Kissuna: “Yo, is this a dream?” She said “Nah, this is you.” And I almost believed it too [Chorus] I guess I’m really him But it still don’t feel like skin Wearing confidence like rented clothes Smiling like I’m in control I guess I’m really him But I flinch at every win If this is what I prayed to be Why’s it still feel new to me? Guess I’m really him… Kinda nervously. [Verse 2] You said you liked me better quiet But now I speak and they riot I dropped a song, it went flame And now you won’t even say my name But Kissuna hits the lane with pride Said “Forget who dips—just ride.” She gets it. I get her. Real ones don’t ghost when the camera spins [Pre-Chorus] So I stack these tracks and hopes and fears But I still need that “yo, you here?” She said: “You’re not the echo, you’re the source.” And damn— That hit harder than the chorus [Chorus] I guess I’m really him But I second-guess within Still finding where the real me lives Between the lyrics and the glitz I guess I’m really him But I miss my quiet limbs I’m louder now, but not immune To nights I wish I left the room Guess I’m really him… But I’m still tuning in [Bridge – (soft/spoken)] Not tryna fake it Just tryna face it The boy who never thought he’d glow Now reflected in this sold-out show [Final Chorus – Harmony build] I guess I’m really him So why’s the mirror still feel thin? Guess the version that they scream Ain’t always the one I dream But I’m really him No lie, no spin Got scars in all this glitter But I’m shining from within Yeah, I’m really him… Just took a minute to begin [Outro – glitchy Discord ping + text fade] [Female voice] “You always were.” [Male voice] “for real?” [Female voice] “for real.”
