Fakers by We Skeem Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you don't get my music, I'm so happy for you
Cause for the normal and the stable, I got nothing for you
Only weirdos and the broken can relate to the meaning
And weed through all the joking to find all the crying and screaming
That's why when these dudes say they're 'sad' it's demeaning
They had a bad day and act like they know the feeling
You feel empty and lost, yeah, it's normal for all
Don't confuse that with thinking that you've been through it all
I recall all the falls when I couldn't get up
You just bawl then you ball like you threw it all up
We all don't have the privilege to see this thing through
Cause if you really suffer, the suffering's you
I see through the acting into the real you
You think you're impacting, know not what you do
You're hyping up others who think that it's true
That because they have bad days then they're broken too
[Chorus]
Fakers who are wearing blue
I wish that I could fake it too
[Verse 2]
I keep seeing people saying how they are depressed
Tweeting it daily like I should be impressed
But if you really suffer, well that shit stays in your chest
All the pain and the torment, man, it will keep you from getting rest
And at best you confess and it eats at your soul
To admit that you'd quit for a chance to be null
Not everyone is crazy and we're not all depressed
Maybe you are just lazy and your life is a mess
Cause before you met some chaos, you were doing just fine
Now some bad things have happened and you just needed to whine
I'm not fine with the lines that are snapping my spine
You're downplaying the monster that I wish wasn't mine
I will not accept it, this isn't okay
All the wannabe crazies, we must make them pay
They're pining for sorrow but tomorrow they'll play
If they think the right thoughts, they'll feel better today
I'm that kid, I'm the one who looked up to a bum
Who claimed that they beat depression like you beat a drum
This isn't a rhythm or something that's played
It's a gnawing sensation and it will never fade
[Chorus]
Fakers who are wearing blue
I wish that I could fake it too
[Verse 3]
I'm the kid who was told: when I'm old, I'll be better
But never could weather the whether or not
I was different or caught in my desolate spot
So maybe God forgot to cure me with the lot
Because phonies and fakers cry wolf for a phase
But the real who believe get stuck in a daze
Fantasising that we'll no longer be a slave
Or wake up one day so refreshed and so changed
Stop spouting these songs like you know what it's like
Stop luring these children with all of your lies
Everybody hurts and feels lonely and everybody dies
But not everyone knows what life looks like through broken eyes
[Chorus]
Fakers who are wearing blue
I wish that I could fake it too
Fakers who take off their blue
I wish that I could change clothes too
If you don't get my music, I'm so happy for you
Cause for the normal and the stable, I got nothing for you
Only weirdos and the broken can relate to the meaning
And weed through all the joking to find all the crying and screaming
That's why when these dudes say they're 'sad' it's demeaning
They had a bad day and act like they know the feeling
You feel empty and lost, yeah, it's normal for all
Don't confuse that with thinking that you've been through it all
