The Skin i Live In Lyrics

[Intro]
Yuh
Yuh

[Chorus]
Please look away, don't pay me no mind
I don't always live with shame
I'm straight, I'm alright
Always ready for the rain, the rays they don't shine
I just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
Now, hold on

[Post-Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait, hold on

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be right
I don't think that I'm wrong though
Once I identify
I can never hit undo
Fearful for my pride
Scared I ain't what you like
Spare me or let me die
Wave goodbye at the front door

[Hook]
All I do is take my L's
Pay my bills while I hate myself
Hate my thoughts and I hate my shell
Now grown used to the pain I feel, ayy
All I do is take my L's
Pay my bills while I hate myself
Hatе my thoughts and I hate my shell
Now grown used to thе pain I feel, ayy

[Verse 2]
Please don't touch me
Please don't tease me
You don't want me
You don't need me
I feel ugly
I feel teeny
I keep stumbling
I feel sleepy
Please don't take my clothes off, I'm weary
Please don't turn the lights on they scare me
I couldn't love myself in theory let alone in practice
Look at me I'm Captain Dreary, ayy
The boy in the mirror, now they hate me
Maybe can be- No, I can't be
Please don't patronize me
'Cus frankly Imma be good
I ain't angry
Maybe I am
Angry as fuck with this frame I command
This body was given to me by mistake
That must be it but replace it I can't, so

[Chorus]
Please look away, don't pay me no mind
I don't always live with shame
I'm straight, I'm alright
Always ready for the rain, the rays they don't shine
I just want to hide my face
Please look away, don't pay me no mind
I don't always live with shame
I'm straight, I'm alright
Always ready for the rain, the rays they don't shine
I just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
Now, hold on

[Post-Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait, hold on

[Verse 3]
I don't wanna be right
I don't think that I'm wrong though
All life surmised through experiences I've gone through
Reaffirm, are we light?
In the case where we hide
Some platitudes among lines
Impassive and fucking cruel

[Hook]
All I do is take my L's
Pay my bills while I hate myself
Hate my thoughts and I hate my shell
Now grown used to the pain I feel, okay, okay
All I do is take my L's
Pay my bills while I hate myself
Saying the same shit can break this spell
All I feel is shame, pain and guilt, Rav

[Bridge]
I don't know
Only blues and grays in my kaleidoscope
'Bout to fly the boat
I will die alone, but on a lighter note
My M.O. is to undermine my own
And I think I now know why
This body ain't mine at all
I said
I don't know
Only blues and grays in my kaleidoscope
'Bout to fly the boat
I will die alone, but on a lighter note
My M.O. is to undermine my own
And I think I now know why
This body ain't mine at all

[Chorus]
So, please look away, don't pay me no mind
I don't always live with shame
I'm straight, I'm alright
Always ready for the rain, the rays they don't shine
I just want to hide my face (my face, my face)
Please look away, don't pay me no mind (don't pay me no mind)
I don't always live with shame
I'm straight, I'm alright
Always ready for the rain, the rays they don't shine
I just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
Now, hold on

[Post-Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on (hold on)
Hold on, hold on, hold on, wait, hold on (hold on)
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on (hold on)
Hold on, hold on, hold on, (hold on)
Please, hold on
