Lyrics of 'Honest' by Austin Patten

Lemme be honest, this is a lot of truth
I never got along with the current youth
I graduated like none believed
Run back now they can die to me
I'll slip up and I'll say too much
This has been overdue
I could die today but it'd be okay 'cause I'd rather die than be you

And I remember I had some crushes
But they only to knew to crush me
But it's funny now 'cause I found the one, and you still a fish in the sea
And I'm so glad it worked out
I found a love so true
I hear the word pathetic, and I'll probably think about you

And I have some friends that I lost
They hate me now it's a shame
Pulled the knife out of my back so much I got used to that pain
So I cut em off with that blade
You learn to hate and I'll live
If there's one thing that you know me for, I don't forget or forgive

It's just how I learned the game
These people never will change
They watch close and they happy till I swerve out of my lane
'Cause they want you here to be normal
They want you down with them too
If you told that you hated me I'd tell you yeah what's new

But at least I'm staying true
Came a long way from a couple views
Still gotta good long way to go
But I'm still so thankful too

These enemies they lurking
But the truth is all that I tell
Your life is so pathetic that you looking forward to hell

Well, disconnected my generation
Know my name and my reputation
Celebrating my resignation
Finally seeing my destination
Everybody they watching waiting
What's the move that I'm finally making
They worried now 'cause they want some fame
This is all they got they hoping shaking

World there on my shoulders
It's been there for awhile
And all I ever wanted was to make some people smile
If my stories help em out
If they feel the words I say
If I help em through a night
If I take em off to that place

You know that place you go when you're lost
But you sit down and hit play
It almost feels like you're free now and you're finally taken away
Yeah I know the feeling the best
Been feeling that for some years
It's so good to be smiling now 'cause I drowned in all of these tears

Yeah I drowned in all of these fears
I've known the dark for so long
That I took my pain and problems and I put em into these songs
Now they finally showing some love
But I learned I didn't need it
When you run back with that love I'll be happy if you just keep it
