I hide behind a persona, I hide behind a guise, Everyone thinks they know who I am, But im built upon leagues of lies, My mentality is a paradox, Personality is unknown, Im surrounded by vessels of ignorance, That have not witnessed how ive grow, They see me as one thing, When I know that im another, Im seen as a being quite content, When truly I toil and suffer, But im happy with how im viewed, Even if it is fictitious, If im viewed as being gentle and kind, Am I really vicious, So if I just accept these views, Will they change me truly, Inside I may be a beast, But to them I am the beauty.

Hidden
I hide behind a persona, I hide behind a guise, Everyone thinks they know who I am, But im built upon leagues of lies, My mentality is a paradox, Personality is unknown, Im surrounded by vessels of ignorance, That have not witnessed how ive grow, They see me as one thing, When I know that im another, Im seen as a being quite content, When truly I toil and suffer, But im happy with how im viewed, Even if it is fictitious, If im viewed as being gentle and kind, Am I really vicious, So if I just accept these views, Will they change me truly, Inside I may be a beast, But to them I am the beauty.
