A mask, something we use to conceal our selves with.
Some people wear one, so they can hide their emoions.
Some wear it so they can hide their true selves, out of fear of being rejected.
And some don't even realize they're wearing a one.
So do I wear one?
I have no idea.
But if I do wear a mask.
The reason would be...
I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time
Stare at the ceiling while I hold back what's on my mind
And when they ask me how I'm doing
I say, "I'm just fine"And when they ask me how I'm doing
I say, "I'm just fine"But the fact is
I can never get off of my mattress
And all that they can ask is
"Why are you so sad, kid?" (Why are you so sad, kid?)
That's what the mask is
That's what the point of the mask is
So you can see I'm tryin'
You won't see me cryin'
I'll just keep on smilin', I'm good
(Yeah, I'm good)And it just keeps on pilin'
It's so terrifying
But I keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
I've been carin' too much for so long
Been comparin' myself for so long
Been wearin' a smile for so long, it's real
So long, it's real, so long, it's real
Always bein' judged by a bunch of strange faces
Scared to go outside, haven't seen the light in ages
But I've been places
So I'm okay-ish, so I'm okay-ishYeah, I'm okay, bitch
But the fact is
I need help, I'm failin' all my classes
They think that I need glasses
I just really wish that I could pass this (Wish that I could pass this)
That's what the mask is
That's what the point of the mask isSo you can see I'm tryin'
You won't see me cryin'
I'll just keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
And it just keeps on pilin'
It's so terrifying
But I keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
I've been carin' too much for so long
Been comparin' myself for so long
Been wearin' a smile for so long, it's real
So long, it's real, so long, it's real
So long, it's real
So long, it's real

Author's Notes:I've done it.... I've made my greatest masterpiece, anything I write cannot be compared to this.
I've peak, it's so beautiful.
The themes that this represents.
Criticizing society on how it treats those who are struggling with gender identity, those who are struggling with issues regarding race, or those who are struggling with their sexuality.
I hope you enjoyed this, as much as I did making it and I hope you would share this with people who are struggling with these kinds of issues.
