Just Me Being Me

The problem I found that haunts me Is that I say just what I feel A lot of people cant take my honesty But that’s just me being real Mom told me something years ago I should have taken it as a rule She said sometimes it’s best to shut up and let it go And just be thought of as a fool But I’m bad about opening my mouth So I guess I took the lesser route And before they can even think I’m a fool I relieve them of all of their doubts People tends to twist my word you see As if they know what’s in my head They tell me this is what I meant or what it ought to be But if I said it, it was meant to be said. A lot of people cant take my honesty But that’s just me being real And the problem that I finds that haunts me Is that I say just what I feel
