Mariah Counts - FLAWED EULOGY

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1989443
Always there for me
Never let me fall
Take a bullet for me
Answer every call

Never had to question cuz
They always how me love
They're chosen family
Might as well been blood

But the truth is
That's just the highlight
I want you to roast me
And keep me in the spotlight

My corpse is getting off
At just the thought
Of everyone gathering to talk about me
And my selfish tendencies

Cuz the real mе wasn't listening
Always had to be my way
And i was stubborn, but i loved hard
Couldn't sway mе any day

But i gave this world all i could
Don't have regret, and that feels good
The real me gave everything
Wasn't perfect but i tried

And this is my goodbye

(okay, let's do the second half)
(two, three, four)

I want something real, not what you'd expect
Dig a secret up you never should have kept
They already know how loyal and how far i'll go
Just to keep my people safe and help them when they're low

But the truth is
That's just the highlight
I want you to roast me
And keep me in the spotlight

My corpse is getting off
At just the thought
Of everyone gathering to talk about me
And my selfish tendencies

Cuz the real me wasn't listening
Always had to be my way
And i was stubborn, but i loved hard
Couldn't sway me any day
But i gave this world all i could
Don't have regret, and that feels good

The real me gave everything
Wasn't perfect but i tried

And this is my goodbye

Let me go, let me go
Talk shit, talk shit, talk shit
Let me go, let me go
Talk shit, talk shit, talk shit

Cuz the real me wasn't listening
Always had to be my way
And i was stubborn, but i loved hard
Couldn't sway me any day

But i gave this world all i could
Don't have regret, and that feels good

The real me gave everything
Wasn't perfect but i tried

And this is my goodbye
