​forfeit Lyrics by guardin

if we’re being honest

2023

[Chorus]
Baby, don't forget things aren't always certain
In due time, I'll come inside and hide behind the curtain
Lately, I forfeit, succumb to the surface
I've got quite the habit of telling myself I'm worthless

[Verse 1]
Safety, harness me into the mainstream
Snip on these straps 'til I'm dangling
Over the heads of the people who I put my trust in
Trusted you, but now even that's busted
Adapting quick, well-adjusted
You make me sick, I'm disgusted
Functionality is vital when your future spirals
Down a path you've been tryna follow
Evidently, I'll be hollowed out and placed in piles
It's the price that you pay to smile
They don't like it when I'm speaking out
Here we go again, you done freaking out
Yeah, this cold ass world got me freezing, I guess
I'll keep dreaming now, it's like this, huh?

[Chorus]
Baby, don't forget things aren't always certain
In due time, I'll come inside and hide behind the curtain
Lately, I forfeit, succumb to the surface
I've got quite the habit of telling myself I'm worthless

[Verse 2]
Do not forget, it's important
Things could be much worse, and surely, time will sort it
Please don't forfeit, it's important
Life is beautiful, in time, I'm sure you'll learn that
All we know is we're comfortable
At the rate that things are movin', we in slo-mo-mo
Take it with a grain of salt 'cause we still grow, grow, grow
Plantin' seeds inside this garden
We ain't finished what we started, no

[Chorus]
Baby, don't forget things aren't always certain
In due time, I'll come inside and hide behind the curtain
Lately, I forfeit, succumb to the surface
I've got quite the habit of telling myself I'm worthless

[Outro]
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not)
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not)
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not worthless)
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not)
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not)
Telling myself I'm (Even though I'm not) worthless, worthless
