Let's Talk

(album: RAPHA - 2022)

How dare you scrutinize and hypnotize
Cause compromise, I'm dignified
I'm paralyzed and therapy don't tame the fire
Don't make it right
Wash all of your hands but the blood still stains
Hear the children crying in pain
I don't need to complicate the melody
I'm just tryna erase haunting memories

I'm not gonna stay here
But it's where I live for now
I just need a place where I can let the darkness out
I don't think I will use it
Cause darkness ain't a style
So I wonder where to put it and it drives me all the more while

My friends are going out tonight (all of my promise)
And I try not to fall off
I just wish I was alone for a while
But let the worst of me just talk
Just let me talk
Just talk
Just talk
We've won
We've won
We've won

I'm exhausted and I'm tired
And my load don't get much lighter
I've surrendered but I'm sinking
And I'm way past overthinking
How am I supposed to keep this up?
Switching my feelings on and off
How am I supposed to leave these girls
When I don't even wanna face the world?

I'm not gonna stay here
On those, I've been new just
Vibing out with people
Who just want some better shoes
Yeah, the voices talk
But now I know what to do
I'll just open up the floor
To let the worst of me come through

My friends are going out tonight (all of my promise)
And I try not to fall off
I just wish I was alone for a while
But let the worst of me just talk
Just let me talk
Just talk
Just talk
We've won
We've won
We've won

So where it went wrong
And how to get back together?
How we love
And how we make it better?
Sorry you've diced the wail
All the way
I will leave you silent one more day
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk

Wait here
I'll stay
I'm here
Good job
Let's talk
You should feel
You've come this far and you all stop now
I know you feel numb but you'll figure it out
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk
