PRETENDER Lyrics

Why you act like that

Why so different

Why you always front

While you play pretend

When you're with your friends

Who you tryna impress

Why you act like that

Who you tryna impress

Straight outta Quezon

From the fish farm

I know you probably tired of

Hearing but you ain't done

I know you stumbled to the city

To find yourself

But there ain't no amount of pity

To fix it all

"I know you turned out right"

"I didn't raise no brat"

"Heard you got photos done"

"Think you got face like that?"

"Who does he think he is?"

"What is he trying to be?"

They hit they barbers up

So they can look like me

Uh

Why you act like that?

Why so different?

Why you always front?

While you play pretend?

When you're with your friends

Who you tryna impress?

Why you act like that?

Who you tryna impress?

Don't even worry

Don't even worry

I got too many on me

I just get it and they told me

Now you just gotta go

No worth in feeling lonely

Fuck a disguise

I'm insane

They don't even know me

I intercept they love

Is this the afterlife

I know her tastes so great

Had to find one like her

Tell me you feel this shift

The stars in sync here right?

How I go off like this son

Why you act like that?

Why so different?

Why you always front?

While you play pretend?

When you're with your friends

Who you tryna impress?

Why you act like that?

Who you tryna impress?

All this new jazz shit

Got me out here

And feelin like a god

I write scripture in the music

Whenever I hit record

"You can put yourself out there

But they ain't takin everyone"

If they say we ain't hit loud enough

I say we turn it up

Yeah they cant fuck with

Love like this

They cant see it like I can

We'll be set for life

Midnight socialite

We don't need police

Midnight drive hotel

They cant fuck with mine

They cant mess with my

Why you act like that?

Why so different?

Why you always front?

While you play pretend?

When you're with your friends

Who you tryna impress?

Why you act like that?

Who you tryna impress?
