Being Weak Is Not Ok

(This is a lyric that is a rap, pop and rock song - 3 in 1. Have fun, reading!)

So, you think that I am weak
Oh no, you let spill the doubt leak
Times like these look so bleak
I’m sorry, babe, for losing my mind
Over you, sure, I do it all the time
I’m sorry, okay, I admit – I’m blind
But, being oblivious is sometimes…sublime

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will show you behind the eyes
Behind the blinds of a thousand lies

I am not weak, weak, weak
You don’t hear me speak 
I am not weak, weak, weak
You are wrong about me frankly
You can care less, it is clear as day
I am not weak, weak, weak
Actually, you’re wrong apparently
Silly how I want you to still stay…
I am not weak, weak, don’t speak…
Stay…the way you are, just stay that way

You are a flawless diamond in the cave 
In a phase of craze, yet, I feel so brave
In a phase of craze, but I will be okay…
Okay, no more tears to shed today
No more assuming that I am weak
Because, honestly, you’re one to speak 
Speak, speak, speak to your highest peak

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will show you behind the eyes
Behind the blinds of a thousand lies

I am not weak, weak, weak
You don’t hear me speak 
I am not weak, weak, weak
You are wrong about me frankly
You can care less, it is clear as day
I am not weak, weak, weak
Actually, you’re wrong apparently
Silly how I want you to still stay…
I am not weak, weak, don’t speak…
Stay…the way you are, just stay that way

Don’t deny or doubt that I still like you
Just not the awful, little things you do 
It means so much to me that you still care
Even though you don’t show it, you won’t dare
Don’t you dare call me 
The weak one of them all
I’m actually glad that we 
See eye to eye against the wall

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will show you behind the eyes
Behind the blinds of a thousand lies

I am not weak, weak, weak
You don’t hear me speak 
I am not weak, weak, weak
You are wrong about me frankly
You can care less, it is clear as day
I am not weak, weak, weak
Actually, you’re wrong apparently
Silly how I want you to still stay…
I am not weak, weak, don’t speak…
Stay…the way you are, just stay that way

Your sorrow sticks out like a sore thumb
Tomorrow will make the pain become numb 
We are still young and free in the dead of night
Yet, we are old souls, fighting with our might
For peace of mind, mind, mind
And peace in mind…let’s unwind…
None of us will be left behind
We are strong and no longer blind
Well, if you can try to be kind
Or you’ll drive me out of my mind

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will show you behind the eyes
Behind the blinds of a thousand lies

I am not weak, weak, weak
You don’t hear me speak 
I am not weak, weak, weak
You are wrong about me frankly
You can care less, it is clear as day
I am not weak, weak, weak
Actually, you’re wrong apparently
Silly how I want you to still stay…
I am not weak, weak, don’t speak…
Stay…the way you are, just stay that way

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will show you behind the eyes
Behind the blinds of a thousand lies

So, you think that I am weak
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I will change and you’ll be surprised
Hm, who knows, maybe even mesmerized…
Am I prized or am I despised? 
If it’s either one, I won’t be surprised…

You think that I am weak in your eyes
Think again, yes, do think again
I am stronger than you realize
I am the bold lion out of his den… 
So, you think that I am weak 
Oh dear, I am not weak, weak, weak
Darling, the way I am in your view
Is nothing new, coming from you…
The corrupted things you do
Gave it away…away…who knew 

You thought that I was weak
Well, you don’t know me,
So, darling, don’t you speak
Those words so sweetly…cruelly…

Keep thinking I am weak
Keep saying I am weak 
Keep talking over me
Keep walking carelessly 

Open the blinds, sift out the lies
Stick with your words, you heard
If you mean what you say…hey! Hey!
Lost my mind – it always happens, how absurd
Still weak in your eyes, in your eyes
But please stay, just stay! Okay?
