Let the Rest Burn Away

People running round in circles

Chasing faces chasing praise

Giving pieces of their hearts away

Just to earn a little grace

Doing favors for the fakers

Who would never do the same

You lose yourself a little more

Each time you play their game

But there’s a voice inside that’s screaming

Stop pretending start believing in yourself

You only start living

When you stop giving

A damn ‘bout what they say

Speak your truth, don’t fade away

If you don’t like someone, just say it

Don’t fake it, don’t delay it

Keep the real ones close today

And let the rest burn away

They lie with pretty faces

And somehow they still win

While honest hearts get broken

By the mess they’re drowning you in

But you can rise above the poison and be free

Yeah you can walk your own way

You don’t owe the world your silence be only yourself

You don’t owe them your decay

There’s a freedom in the knowing

When you stop the endless showing

You only start living

When you stop giving

A damn ‘bout what they say

Speak your truth, don’t fade away

If you don’t like someone, just say it

Don’t fake it, don’t delay it

Keep the real ones close today

And let the rest burn away

Let them talk let them whisper

Their words don’t cut like they used to do

When you stand in your own fire think wise

You’ll see the light inside you’s true and rise

You only start living

When you stop giving

A damn ‘bout what they say

Speak your truth, don’t fade away

If you don’t like someone, just say it

Don’t fake it, don’t delay it

Keep the real ones close today

And let the rest burn away
