Are you famous?

Yeah
I’m good
I always say that

Bank app rude rent too close don’t blink
I walk through cold like I still got brink
Stairwell light flicker door chain tight
I nod at my shadow like we aight

Bills on the table sink still stained
Love in the room but it feel restrained
Same jeans clean kicks chin held high
Panic look ugly I keep it styled

Pride in my posture stress in my jaw
Smiling like I never seen a loss
Text get dry where you been
I been in my head with a war within

Some nights I miss home say nothing though
Let the kettle hiss like it knows
Broken House in my chest still make it knock
Quiet in my ribs loud in my walk

Quiet in my ribs
Loud in my walk

One drink turn two when the mind won’t sit
One smoke cause the world too loud to fix
I’m not even broken just carrying
Moving like I’m fine barely balancing

Everybody shining phone flash bright
But I see tired eyes under the lights
My laugh come late my smile get thin
Then the bass pull me in

Are you famous
Are you famous

Cause your silence got a sound in here
Like you loud without a word in here

Are you famous
Are you famous

The way you stand make the crowd disappear
Whole room shift when you in here

Are you famous
Or is it just me

She say I’m distant I say I’m worn
We fight bout love while the bills still swarm
Kisses turn later later turn weeks
We speak in habits not what we mean

Dishes in the sink voicemail full
Two good people getting stretched and pulled
I don’t cheat I just go quiet
Truth right now might start a riot

Everybody online selling good life
Meanwhile we bleeding in the same disguise
Uber ride hush streetlights slide
I stare at the map like where I hide

I pull up fresh like I’m up for real
Fresh don’t fix what don’t heal
I laugh on cue then fade right back
Quiet is a lie I don’t say that

Club door breathe fog roll in
Bass hit chest like a second skin
Phone lights blink names get thrown
Everybody acting like they not alone

Then she walk in soft and sharp
Like she never had to restart her heart
I stand tall calm severe
But something in me lean to hear

She got that look like she used to eyes
Like her name got weight in other lives
And me I’m tall with a practiced grin
But it’s wear and tear under the skin
