Fake Stuff Lyrics by ​CaRter

2016

[Intro]
My heart, you think you really own me
Not a start, it still feels like the old me

[Chorus]
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff

[Verse 1]
Okay, back when I was young
I had people looking down at me
Now I'm grown up now, trynna live so free
People never saw me for who I was
I'm just tryna get it no, not because

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You doubt me, yeah, you hate it
When I'm out there and faded
Seems like everybody wants a piece
I'm just trying for redemption, please

[Chorus]
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff

[Verse 2]
Ever since I started this shit on day one
I been tryna keep it so real for my day ones
People always saying that I'm not that far
Then they always looking when I raise the bar

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You doubt me, yeah, you hate it
When I'm out there and jaded
Seems like everybody wants a problem
I'm not trying to solve them

[Chorus]
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff

[Bridge]
I been running hopelessly
Seems like everybody still staring at me
You fake it then, MTV
And you don't choose your words carefully
But I been running hopelessly
Seems like everybody still staring at me
You fake it then, MTV
And you don't choose your words carefully

[Chorus]
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff
'Cause I been feeling down, down, down
Down, down, then I wake up
I'm tired of running round, round, round
Round, round for the fake stuff
