Certain Reality

I’m mostly self-conscious, a bit oblivious Completely outgoing, but then that’s obvious I’m addicted to Dr. Pepper because it’s my cocaine And I love the darkness when it rains I’m a bit pessimistic and collectively sarcastic I’ve been described as eccentric and somewhat too drastic I’m an artist in my heart, soul, and mind I love to laugh so my mouth will be lined I’m a believer in the unseen And I know God’s in Heaven watching over me I make mistakes, more than one But even with morals I know how to have fun I have ridiculous friends, and I’ll adore them forever Even if I’m so far away I have to send letters I’m talkative, pretty much all the time And my artistic chaos is somewhat sublime I’m prone to occasionally overreact But now that I’m aware, I’ve fixed most of that Of politeness and smiles I’m a big fan And when given a choice, I always stand Arkansas is where I’m from and the Razorbacks my symbol And my family is there, not blood but faithful I prefer the summer over the winter And I am one with a quick temper I’m not gorgeous, but I’ve got Southern charm And with my darlin’s and y’all’s, you’ll fall for me hard All of these things are a part of me And I can be your best friend or your worst enemy Starbucks is the place of my dreams And I love pizza when meat is the theme Chocoholic doesn’t even begin to describe My passion for cocoa of any kind I don’t have a filter, which is a curse and a blessing Because usually I’ll say whatever I’m thinking I’ll hold intelligent conversation wherever I can And all of this is just who I am
