Fakes


Phonies, fakes, everybody is the same When their all up in your face their trying to be somebody But behind closed doors they know they're nobody You say that someday you want to grow up and make a change Tell the world how you feel, speak the truth keep it real But if you fake who you are just to be a superstar At the end of the day, your going to have to pay The price, for lying, denying about everything you were Could have been, should have been, and everything your not Think about what you do, think about what you say Think of how you want to die, being real or being a lie
