Zacari Truth Is Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
I don't want it to be darker here
When you come to me
I just wanna see the sparkle there
When you look at me (Yeah), I wasn't ready for you
I need more time to bring myself
Out of the darkness and into the light
[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid and I'm ashamed to admit that
I'm afraid I'm a fraud
I'm a failure when I smile in your face
It's a fake, I'm afraid
I'm scurred that I'll make a mistake
I'm a fake and a failure
I'm afraid, I'm afraid

[Post-Chorus]
That I'ma hurt your feelings and you'll look at me different
There ain't nothin' realer than when I'm deep in it
I'm afraid (Yeah, I'm afraid)
(I'm afraid, yеah)

[Bridge]
Truth is I need you, that'll never change
Wе on the right path to better days
Truth is that nobody knows me like you do (Believe me)
Truth is that I need you way more than you need me
I'm afraid
I'm afraid

[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid and I'm ashamed to admit that
I'm afraid I'm a fraud I'm a failure when I smile in your face
It's a fake, I'm afraid
I'm scurred that I'll make a mistake
I'm a fake and a failure
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
[Interlude]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
Ooh

[Verse 2]
I just had a premonition
And I just got a really bad feelin'
And I don't think anybody knows who I really am
Truth is, I'm afraid to be alone in the end

[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid

[Verse 3]
I don't ever know how to express myself, myself
If it ain't over loud drums and bass (Just talk to me)
My pain and thoughts over the high notes
My anger dances over hi hats
My fears blow through the horns
And my love, it bounces on the bongos
I could feel you coming, coming
Yeah, I just had a premonition, premonition
Yeah, I feel it coming, coming
Yeah, I just got a really bad feeling
[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
