Thought I Knew You

[Verse 1]
Yo, put my trust in you, bit too fucking soon
Gave it up for you, laid it all down, was in love with you like a bloody fool
Made a clown, play around, don't just say that you'll stay around
Call my name, I won't make a sound, that day, mad late, if they allow
Act great, backstage with a different crowd, that's great

No doubt, want a chance at greatness, hold up, you ain't gracious, don't smile
Don't know what to say, shit. So mild, so childish. Fuck it
Yo, I know I'll never be belittled by a group, ain't worth the time to search a life to get inside of you despite you like a fool, yeah

[Chorus]
I honestly thought I knew you, tell me
How did you become so cruel, baby
Don't let go, I can't control
Gave up my everything but you broke my heart in two
I can't believe you anymore

[Verse 2]
No plans to be part of a congregation
That's why we're hardly an honest nation
Now we've started a segregation
And at last there's no props to play the role I wanna play in
Stop the placement
Shit's an abomination crossed with hatred
Falsifying across the statements, solidifying these ironic sayings

Preach acceptance of different views, but you selectively pick and choose
As a collective you reject the truth, instead of inspecting with depth the roots
Blind to rational logic and reason, presented with facts y'all just crop and delete em
Embedded in tablets you got to believe it, directing the masses nonsensical deacons
Don't add up Must be the demon right? Demonize, bitch free my mind
Shouldn't need to try to believe these lies, tell me what the fuck do you see in shrines
If the reasons why you're being nice, to be free from eternity of fire
You should redefine your deceiving mind, and find new ways to help keep in line

[Chorus]
I honestly thought I knew you, tell me
How did you become so cruel, baby
Don't let go, I can't control
Gave up my everything but you broke my heart in two
I can't believe you anymore

[Bridge]
Can't change the past, but storms don't last, and now I've gone away

[Chorus]
I honestly thought I knew you, tell me
How did you become so cruel, baby
Don't let go, I can't control
Gave up my everything but you broke my heart in two
I can't believe you anymore
