Sometimes it's hard to face reality Oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me Oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Should've been adjusted to my life Had the opportunity to stay away for the last time They're standing right in front of me It hurts me to know that a lot Tryna protect your feelings You've been in between the lines Of your honey's dirty handlin' Sometimes it's hard to face reality Oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me Oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Don't be afraid to stand alone Don't be afraid to stand outside your comfort zone I know it's far away from home And it ain't easy all alone Release the script over the phone Talking to your significant other all night long Sometimes it's hard to face reality Oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me Oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality Love and death are quite similar How they come and go like cat burglars Reality is kinda hard to face Like actual facts, it's a flat earth There's rains a requirement for flowers to grow And pains a requirement for power to grow It's a miracle how one could change From one what was just hours ago Such is life though, it's just a cycle The bigger picture and the smaller picture Exactly the same, it's macro-micro Crack your atom and let your light glow One day you could be the king of pop And the next one just be wacko Michael It's human nature, it's like he told us Let's face reality, crack the cycle Know it hurts to see the truth in your face Circumstances bring you down to your knees Go on and cry an ocean but don't drown in it Enough to put your heart at ease Oh, don't lose your self-esteem I apologize for being a man It's way harder than what it seems Sometimes it's hard to face reality Love and death You know you might get mad at me But I'll be on your bedside Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality
