Authentic from Authentic by The Januariez

Authentic

See the window
where the neighbors watch me
they'll never knock on my door
Could I blame them?
I've seen myself before
sitting in the back yard
playing the same riff over again
on my guitar
singing these same words over again
"I don't care anymore"

So you see me
you might like me
cause I got something you're looking for

Come and get me
you won't stop me
cause your feet haven't left the floor

try and stop me
you might like me
just go ahead and knock on my door

The world is full of designs I've
never
fully embraced
or believed
I gotta second hand shirt
with champagne dreams
Of course my life don't match yours
A dangerous position
an unsettled score
and that's the nature of my authentic world
and I don't care anymore

So you see me
you might like me
cause I got something you're looking for

Come and get me
you won't catch me
cause your feet haven't left the floor

try and stop me
you might like me
just go ahead and knock on my door

bridge: this is real, feel my skin underneath your hands,
shining like a southern sunrise, I'm on fire oh yeah
and the daggers don't matter, the hooks can have their bait
it all falls away face to face
This can be all you want it to be.
