Real

[Verse 1]
Doesn't have to be like this
Holding back on me
And I'm not gonna buy it
'Cause I want a guarantee
You're not gonna hide the things you think are imperfections
Wondering why you act that way I think I'll mention

[Chorus]
That I always want to hear what's on your mind
Yeah it's true I think about you all the time
If something's happening just tell me what's the deal
Don't be afraid of how you feel, you know I gotcha
I just want you to be real
I just want you to be real

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna make it a mission
To help you open up
Yeah, I'm just gonna listen
Can be the one you trust
I'm not gonna lie to you
I'll never keep you guessing
So tell me what you're thinking
You've got my attention

[Chorus]
That I always want to hear what's on your mind
Yea it's true I think about you all the time
If something's happening just tell me what's the deal
Don't be afraid of how you feel, you know I gotcha
I just want you to be real
I just want you to be real

[Bridge]
After all the faking all the politics
Just tell me how you feel (yeah)
Say it's complicated but I'm not convinced that you don't know the deal (yeah)
You know I got your back
You don't have to act
Like we're living in the make believe
You know that you're not trapped
By your messed up past
Why you livin' in a fantasy? (in a fantasy)

[Chorus]
I just want you to be real
That I always want to hear what's on your mind
Yea it's true I think about you all the time
If something's happening just tell me what's the deal
Don't be afraid of how you feel, you know I gotcha
I just want you to be real
That I always want to hear what's on your mind
Yea it's true I think about you all the time
If something's happening just tell me what's the deal
Don't be afraid of how you feel, you know I gotcha
I just want you to be real
I just want you to be real
I just want you to be real
