Would you believe

 Would you believe it if I say I'm not me anymore 
Would you believe it if i said I died once leaving my throne 
Like that one song feeling like my home ain't my home 
Would you believe it if I said I'm fading away 

Facing this pain, I'm failing again 
Chasing my dreams, I'm choosing with grace
I'm hating this realm, I'm losing my taste.

Used to once wanted to save face 
But now I let them speak, just for my own peace.

My life is like a thesis. Every stage is for different audiences, 
Every importance is a chain link to my heartache.

These scars are battles. I fought in silence and won 
Feels good knowing no one can see through what you've built
Cause those days still haunts you like Halloween.

I've grown immune to what doesn't hurt my pride 
Grown to love those who love me and leave the hate behind.
