Dream - Mask

                [Intro]
Am G C F
      (Ayo, Perish, this is hot, boy)
 
[Verse 1]
Am                   G
I wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time
C                            F
Stare at the ceiling while I hold back what's on my mind
Am                           G
And when they ask me how I'm doing
                  C
I say, "I'm just fine"
                              F
And when they ask me how I'm doing
                 Am
I say, "I'm just fine"
Am
But the fact is
G                         C       F
I can never get off of my mattress
                      Am     G
And all that they can ask is
                C            F
"Why are you so sad, kid?" (Why are you so sad, kid?)
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                Am      G
That's what the mask is
                             C       F
That's what the point of the mask is
 
[Chorus]
           Am
So you can see I'm tryin'
          G
You won't see me cryin'
          C                    F
I'll just keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
            Am
And it just keeps on pilin'
        G
It's so terrifying
      C                    F
But I keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
          Am         G
I've been carin' too much for so long
      C             F
Been comparin' myself for so long
      Am        G                      C
Been wearin' a smile for so long, it's real
                 F
So long, it's rеal, so long, it's real
 
[Verse 2]
Am            G                           C
Always bein' judged by a bunch of strangе faces
             F                                  Am
Scared to Go outside, haven't seen the light in ages
              G
But I've been places
        C               F
So I'm okay-ish, so I'm okay-ish
F
Yeah, I'm okay, bitch
        Am
But the fact is
G                               C       F
I need help, I'm failin' all my classes
                       Am
They think that I need glasses
G                               C          F
I just really wish that I could pass this (Wish that I could pass this)
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                Am     C
That's what the mask is
                             F
That's what the point of the mask is
 
[Chorus]
           Am
So you can see I'm tryin'
          G
You won't see me cryin'
          C                    F
I'll just keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
            Am
And it just keeps on pilin'
        G
It's so terrifying
      C                    F
But I keep on smilin', I'm good (Yeah, I'm good)
          Am         G
I've been carin' too much for so long
      C             F
Been comparin' myself for so long
      Am        G                      C
Been wearin' a smile for so long, it's real
                 F                    Am
So long, it's rеal, so long, it's real
 
[Outro]
               Am C G
So long, it's real
               Am C G
So long, it's real
