Barefaced

V4.5

Mmm... I’ve worn this grace like armor, Wrote my name in quiet fire. You saw a mountain, didn’t know I was made of cracked desire. Told the world I was unshaken, While my chest caved in at night. Called it strength, But it was just the fear of fightin’ right. But now I’m facin’ the mirror, Can’t lie to her no more. What I thought was survival, Was a heart locked behind a door. I’m standin’ here barefaced, Tears like confession rain. Didn’t come to be perfect, Just to own my pain. No filter, no script, Just the truth in my spit If I break, let it show, If I shine, let it glow. I’m not hiding anymore I’m barefaced. I held my breath for decades, Tryna sing through all the scars. Wore a smile like it was tailored, But it never fit my heart. They praised the way I held it down, But I was sinkin’ in my shoes. Now I rise with every wound That I don’t have to prove. So I’m facin’ the silence, Where the lies used to scream. Takin’ off the pressure mask And finally startin’ to breathe... I’m standin’ here barefaced, Tears like confession rain. Didn’t come to be perfect, Just to own my pain. No filter, no script, Just the truth in my spit If I break, let it show, If I shine, let it glow. I’m not hiding anymore I’m barefaced... This isn’t weakness, It’s the rising. This is the soul, Finally deciding... I’m standin’ here barefaced, Tears like confession rain. Didn’t come to be perfect, Just to own my pain. No filter, no script, Just the truth in my spit If I break, let it show, If I shine, let it glow. I’m not hiding anymore I’m barefaced... Barefaced...
