The priceless value of being real
In a time when words have become as cheap,
As the people that bother to speak them,

Twisted tongues utter half truths
If it wasn't so sad, I would be amused.

When did it become so hard,
To be real?

Being authentic comes with a price,
I guess it does not pay to be nice.

In a world of fake, disposable people,
I drown in their sea of lies.

Authenticity is dead
Lets all be fake instead of genuine.
