flipside - marty mckay lyrics

[verse 1]
locked between my flaws and abandoned in terror
but everything starts here with the man in the mirror
as i stare in my direction, fully aware of all my imperfections
and i know that you were scared to come in second
got a driving force from a divine source and the heavens are aware of me
this isn’t just music, it’s my obsession and my therapy
all i see is dark, i search the farthest
flirt with darkness, so it can feed my art
words bleed thy heart, blood becomes ink, ink becomes my art
probably one of the reasons i’m not such a light heart
not carefree, i carry heavy loads, yeah blame me
but heavy is the crown and the heart of “king me”
who they can’t see, i ain’t felt close with another soon
nah, not since i popped out my mother’s womb
even with friends and girls
it feels like it’s always been me against the world
i feel sick and need the cure

[verse 2]
i admit it, i carry burdens, heavy as sedative nurses
but i’ll give you this, i’m not a negative person
nah, and no offense to the people i know
but i often feel just completely alone
even when they try to get me on the phone
i’m like, nah b… leave it at the beep or the tone
disconnected from the world like a stranger in moscow
but stranger, ‘cause bust how, it’s a dangerous lifestyle
an old soul, i’ve walked this road before
so, it’s not my first rodeo
now swing your partner dosey doe
but where’s my partner? god only knows
with these negative entities trynna block almost everything i do
but i’m married to the game like i’ve got a wedding ring, i do
anything that comes easy isn’t worth keeping
for sure, peep it, word to victoria, i’m her secret

[chorus]
failed me when i showed you my flipside
i revealed my inner life
you bailed when i most needed your light
i got nothing left inside
you failed the highs and lows
you bailed right at the show
you were gone when i most needed your light
i got nothing left to hide
[verse 3]
we all have our flaws, lord knows i have at least a stack or three
so nathalie, i’m sorry if i made you mad at me
i’m sorry if i crossed a line, it was only ‘cause i lost my mind
crazy over you, amazing what i’d do to get lost in eyes
i’m intense and passionate, i get stressed and bask in it
then use it as a fuel, that’s how get passed all the average sh*t
you’re more than enough, though i acted like nothing was
without you hugging up, sh*t, i forgot just what loving was
see, technically our only disconnects were via text messages
thanks to “no tone”, technology, that’s vexing kids
but even when we went out then
f*ck cloud nine, we were on cloud ten
get attached sometimes, ‘cause i can’t wrap my mind
around how god only made your eyes so fly
but why ask why? fear of missing out each time you didn’t respond by text
i’m thinking, “d*mn, maybe she’s getting it on?”
forget it, its old, i’m rambling, am i skitssin?
wouldn’t expect anyone to understand, but you’re different
and living this thrills, giving me feels
when i’m with you, i feel like i’ve taken the “limitless pill”, ill
