Takes

Lyrics

[verse]

Why you gotta put on such a show for everyone,

Actin' like you're someone that you're clearly not,

I liked you better when you didn't try so hard,

Chasin' after cool like it's a prize you bought.

[chorus]

Life doesn't have to be so complicated,

Why you actin' like it's so complicated,

Just be yourself, that's all that's ever wanted,

Drop the act, and stop bein' so complicated.

[verse]

Used to laugh with me like nothin' else mattered,

Now you're worried 'bout the way your image scattered,

I miss the version of you before the noise,

The one who didn't need the crowd to make some noise.

[chorus]

Life doesn't have to be so complicated,

Why you actin' like it's so complicated,

Just be yourself, that's all that's ever wanted,

Drop the act, and stop bein' so complicated.

[bridge]

Take off the mask, you don't need it here,

Nobody's grading you, so let it all appear,

The realest version wins every single time,

So come back down and leave the show behind.

[chorus]

Life doesn't have to be so complicated,

Why you actin' like it's so complicated,

Just be yourself, that's all that's ever wanted,

Drop the act, and stop bein' so complicated.
