SWMRS Ruining My Pretending

[Verse 1]
There will never be a day when reality can shut me up
I like to think and believe in how I was brought up
I'm part of a people, a people of today
Of stories young and old, and the people those portray

[Pre-Hook]
There are those who sit and listen, to observe and drink it in
There are those who just can't taste it, and they just skip to the end
Well, me, I'm just a fool, who puts himself in that atmosphere
But at least I hear the emotions, and at least I feel the emotions

[Hook]
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending

[Verse 2]
Shoutout to the folks who grew up to live around
Those who are different and those who hear the sounds
Of that art that speaks to them, whether or not they agree with it
It still got chance to speak before some asshole said 'away with it'

[Pre-Hook]
There are those who sit and listen, to observe and drink it in
There are those who just can't taste it, and they just skip to the end
Well, me, I'm just a fool, who puts himself in that atmosphere
But at least I feel the emotions, and at least I feel the emotions

[Hook]
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending

[Bridge]
'Cause some look out the window when the moon is getting high
And some look at the walls when there's fireworks outside
But me, I'm just a fool, and me I'm just a fool
And me I'm just a fool, me I'm just a fool

[Hook]
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending
It's just a story, we all know the feeling
You don't believe it, you're ruining my pretending (you're ruining my pretending)
You're ruining my pretending (you're ruining my pretending)
You're ruining my pretending
