False Hopes Lyrics

You have to sit with the same morbid face of shame
Every single day the cuts wither the pain away
Walk with fake confidence they see right through you
It was made so obvious and your the one who had no clue
Took for granted those amazing opportunities given
Shattered like porcelain lucky to be living
Temptation is lust, make it then you bust
Taken away like trust, Making a way to always fuss
Consider me misguided, fucked up or deprived
As my ambition was sighted, my chances never arrived
Laughing at my reflection, inception
Am I foolish as I show digression, this could be an insurrection
The Resurrection, aggression, the hesitance behind a lesson

I'm evidence of lies and absolutely no attention
False hopes are no surprise to this lonely contestant

You told me forever
You take the pain away
You, promise me a better life
You, You, You, You, told me forever...

What's forever, when we all die at some point
Remain clairvoyant, or drown when they disappoint
Conflict with the heart and mind, tearing apart my insides
Am I alive or dead, love is a surprise like counterfeit
We're constantly walking in a different pair of shoes
Ain't acting ourselves individuality will lose
Set the path of commonality in society
Everyone wants to be a rapper but who has the audacity
Lie to me like your laughter define chastity
Something I figured you knew, so why are you askin' me
Why does the substance in my lyrics flip flop so often
Because the script isn't written and I don't wanna be Common
Hip Hop n shit I'm about to Go off On It
Am I gonna make it or stay in the same spot that I'm at

I'm sick of breaking promises stoppin this nonsense
False Hopes pops the confidence
CHORUS


A term we shouldn't ever use abuse as a muse it's news to not pay our dues
The past month I've been so confused so let down and distraught
Stopped from self inflicted wounds been to hell and caught
Intox - icated boxed in mainly my heart shot
Fought been told good then realized its not
Been played with and twisted you'd be insane if you listened
Or Witnessed this shit its a sickness you get if you give in
I've dealt with heartbreak and broken hearts
Stop me from dealing these chosen cards
Depart easily your another work of art
I'm not cut out for these complications and drama
The relations and depletion in honor
All these fucking problems following me wherever I go
Told things truthfully but misconstrued it as a whole
Depending to much on one person that's stuck in my soul
My eyes are watery and red and I wipe away the tears alone

Logic can't fix this negative persistence and I insist it's insistence to be fuckin'dismissed
False Hopes and all this shit, im tired of all of it, and i'll blame you if you did nothing but follow it
