Real is Rare: Fake is Everywhere

You're Not Alone ***By: Rhoma***

Pretending that you're okay Hiding all the pain with that smile everyday Nobody knows, nobody see; how much wreck that heart of thee Every laugh, every smile you make, time passes and the real will fade Keeping all inside of you Keep goin' with that sham you ***Pre-chorus:*** Baby, you're not alone Baby, I'm here with you Just look and you'll see me at your back walking with you, oh baby ***Chorus:*** Laugh despite the pain, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha It's okay, I won't cry, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha I am fine, baby I won't cry I am fine, baby I won't cry Strong, that is you Pain, that's the real you Don't keep it all by yourself Someone's there to give herself How long will you dissimulate? Go, find, and locate– the real you that was drown Take my hand; together we'll see the dawn ***Pre-chorus:*** Baby, you're not alone Baby, I'm here with you Just look and you'll see me at your back walking with you, oh baby ***Chorus:*** Laugh despite the pain, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha It's okay, I won't cry, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha I am fine, baby I won't cry I am fine, baby I won't cry I know you're not okay You know? Someone's hiding in gray Secretly watching you I'm someone that's here for you Take my hand and I'll pull you up You don't have to pretend I accept who you are I can be that someone you'll call real friend Baby, you're not alone Baby, I'm here with you Just look and you'll see me at your back walking with you, oh baby Laugh despite the pain, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha It's okay 'cause I'm not alone I am fine, baby I'm now real I am fine, baby I'm now real ha-ha-ha-ha-ha (3x) I am fine, baby I'm now real I am fine, baby I'm now real ***Author's Note:*** I wrote this song and I hope it somehow encourage you to be the real you. Like when we don't have to put on make ups, lose more weight, gain weight, be rich, stay with the trend, and so on. I hope we'll feel more confident about ourselves. We can change if we want but where you are right now is also the real you, not because we think this is not our best state yet, also means that we can't be confident about it. We're all in the process and if it's a good process then we should be proud. Be real and you'll also attract real people. You won't have to put your mask on. There's a certain line here that I talked about looking back and you'll see me there. We all have our own separate lives. We can't expect our friends to always be beside us but you can always hope that they got your back. Don't waste real people ^w^ because the world has some people who's fake and those people who are real good at being fake.
