Perception lyrics

by

Quantrelle


[Chorus]
I just put up a photo with an effortless smile
In real life I really been down
Man, perception is wild
Perception is wild

I got a homie with a 100,000 Instagram followers
We went to dinner, he ain't have a dollar
Man, perception is wild
Perception is wild

[Verse]
Sometimes I gotta put my phone down
How you get in touch with me man, you won't know how
It's like everybody got a TV show now
Just holding up a facade, like everything is perfect in they life's
Like none of us deal with emotion, like none of us deal with depression
Word to Usher the realest confession
That I can tell you what I see is ain't nobody tryin'
They spend the whole time lying on they timeline
It's like, man this ain't no break-up spike
But my last chick, I seen her without make-up twice
And the first time I seen her she was acting scared
She would go put on her face and then come back to bed
I couldn't understand
My love is unconditional, I ain't never let her fall, I ain't care about the flaws
But she just wanna be this Instagram celebrity to y'all, and now I get it
But I wish I knew this from the start
It's about what people think, not who you really are
And I can't change this overnight
But you won't know how to love if all you want is likes (yikes)
[Chorus]
I just put up a photo with an effortless smile
In real life I really been down
Man, perception is wild
Perception is wild

Yeah, I know this girl who post her man like her relationship the best
At 4 AM she hit me with a text
Man, perception is wild
Perception is wild

[Verse]
Yeah, look, I want the real life, I want the real life
What does it feel like? What does it feel like?
I don't know anything, don't know what to feel now
I just want everything, everything real now
I like the God-side, connect with nature
I like to meditate, soon as the day come
I'mma go and just, chill at the lake front
And now I just think about, all that He gave us

I tell you this 'cause I get anxiety too
Are you using social media? Is it using you?
I love Steve Jobs and everything he did
He made the iPhone but wouldn't give it to his kids, what that tell you?
My sister started with the iPhone when she was three
When I think about it, that ain't how life used to be
Nah, that ain't how life used to be
It's just addictive as alcohol and cigarettes
The things we do for love from the internet
But they ain't giving up never, 'cause to them it's whatever
They don't know nothing better, 'cause we all fall victim to this perception
