Truth Is

(album: After The Butterflies - 2023)

Silly me to forget who the fuck I was before ya
How silly of me to look past all the flags and still adore ya
You thought you would have the last laugh
Joke's on you, baby
How the tables turn, now that's crazy

Gave you all your confidence
Bigged you up for the minimum
Try to use that shit on me
You're way past your pinnacle
You thought that I wouldn't survive
The devil is a lie

Truth is
That I'm doing better now
Than when I had you around
Truth is
I admit you had me down
Now I'm picking up my crown again

Truth is
That I'm doing better now
Than when I had you around
Truth is
I admit you had me down
Now I'm picking up my crown again

Finally saw the real you
Think that I dodged a bullet, probably would've killed you
You brought the worst out of me
You were so condescending
And so damn controlling
Damn, it feels so good to be free

Gave you too much confidence
Bigged you up for the minimum
Why you use that to shit on me?
You're way past your pinnacle
You thought that I wouldn't survive without you
You know you's a liar

Truth is
That I'm doing better now
Than when I had you around
Truth is
I admit you had me down
Now I'm picking up my crown again

Truth is
That I'm doing better now
Than when I had you around
Truth is
I admit you had me down
Now I'm picking up my crown again
