Soft

[Chorus] They told me don't be soft, soft, soft, soft Soft, soft, soft Lil' homie, don't be soft, soft, soft, soft Soft, soft, soft They told me don't be soft, you should play your part What's it really mean, really mean to have heart? Just be really mean, low esteem, keep your thoughts to yourself What they sell, but I'm tired of bein' hard Like this is what you want, huh? Want me to be tough, huh? 'Cause I see the real you, one beyond the front, huh? You scared to be soft, yeah, yeah Why you so scared to be soft? Yeah, yeah [Verse] Everybody jackin' therapy, I been in thеre since ten yеars old Since when I had to hide it, make excuses for my schedule Got brave enough to say, "Doctor's appointment," but still never told When I was so used to pain, was scared of what could pleasure hold Since I can't show 'em me, said I'ma impress 'em more And make 'em see a version of myself that they'd accept and so I grinded for whoever was my target demographic That's why it's takin' me so long to truly draw my inner atlas But I done made the map now (Oh, oh) The truest me ain't gonna play the background (No, no) Ain't lookin' for no one to give me pass now (Go, go) I wake up with integrity, I got it for the low-low All it cost was years of work, tryin' to reveal my hurt Findin' where my fears would lurk, tryna make the tears occur Got here, now the ceiling's burst, times I couldn't feel my worth Bottled, bottled, bottled, now I'll show you how a spirit works [Chorus] They told me don't be soft, soft, soft, soft Soft, soft, soft Lil' homie, don't be soft, soft, soft, soft Soft, soft, soft They told me don't be soft, you should play your part What's it really mean, really mean to have heart? Just be really mean, low esteem, keep your thoughts to yourself What they sell, but I'm tired of bein' hard Like this is what you want, huh? Want me to be tough, huh? 'Cause I see the real you, one beyond the front, huh? You scared to be soft, yeah, yeah Why you so scared to be soft? Yeah, yeah
