You Think You Do, But You Don't Know Me

Storm clouds hide my face

That's my saving grace

You think you do, but you don't know me

I put on my mask

It's my daily task

You think you do, but you don't know me

I scream to be heard

But I'm still deterred

You think you do, but you don't know me

I will be your friend

Hang on till the end

And you'll think you do, but you won't know me

I will talk

You will walk

You're silent

I'm violent

Not the same

I'm not tame

I'll still smile

All the while

And you'll think you do, but you won't know me

I've tried hundred times

But still commit crimes

You think you do, but you don't know me

I lift heavy rocks

While you bet on stocks

Still you think you do, but you don't know me

Sorry for what I said

Vision tinted red

Heartbeats in my chest

Things are not the best

And you think you do, but you don't know me

You are always around

And you think that you hear

Everything that is done

But you're blinded by fear

I have plenty of sides

That you have never seen

And you'll always be stuck with

What could have, may have been

Cuz you think you do, but you don't know me

I can hide

In plain sight

So that you think you do, but still don't know me
