Can we be real?
Can we be raw?
Like if I show you all of me,
Would you shame me for what you saw?
If I tell you all my secrets,
Would you tell me no more lies,
If I let you into the depths and darkest places of my mind,
I just want to be done with all this fake shit...
the facade that most put on,
I want to see you in your entirety,
your whole board not just your pawn,
Don’t play chess with me,
Lets just release the bull shit and be free,
Let me love who you really are,
Let me learn the brightness of your star,
Let me see you glowing from afar,
Then let me zoom in on your biggest flaw.
I’ll show you all my scars and wounds ,
Cause being open can never be too soon,
If your for me...
Cause the real us can intertwine if we just be,
The good the bad the ugly,
Can you really love…..ME.
Or do you want to keep dancing around this fake shit?
Face it,
This is as reality show as it can get.
Watch this whole season,
Don’t runaway there’s no reason,
We are imperfect one in the same,
Just ordinary people attempting extraordinary thangs!
