I don't know when you did it, but you made me a lier.
I never lied, you always claimed I lie when I never lied,
And now that I straight up flick them off my tongue you accept it as is.
'Cuz you don't give a fuck 'bout me no more.
I'm not stupid.
You just don't want the effort.
I'm not worth your breath, so you take mine as false.
Do you even see a difference now?
I was never like this.
I used to care so much, too much,
that I was jealous of people who didn't give two fucks.
I thought they were strong.
I thought they had themselves and they didn't need nun else.
They lied too.
I used to warn too.
One day I'm just gonna stop trying, one day I'm just gonna change.
Nah one day I just looked up and realized it was happening all that time.
Now I understand what those people really meant when they said it.
Like a mental fucking scream for something better.
Tryna be used to bullshit.
Tryna look strong and brush it off, tryna make you feel some type way.
Now I say it with my head down and walk away.
"I don't care."
But do you stop me?
No.
So, I may be a lier now.... but so are you.
