The HU: The Real You

This is not the real you.
You call yourself strong
Hey, shame on you.
You stare at human cruelty
like you’re not part of it.
This is not the real you (Ashamed, broken)
Come on—get real.

Hey, tell me—
do you truly feel the grief,
or only its echo?
You call yourself innocent—
shame on you.
This is not the real you (Wandering, lost)
Come on—get real.

How long will you let their hands shape you,
soft as clay, silent as blame?
How long will you pull others into the fire,
then claim innocence?
Will you stay asleep,
a body without a voice,
a crown without a head?
Heyyy
This isn’t right—
you know it isn’t.
How long will you poison with whispers,
bend truth, bruise, threaten?
How long will you swallow fear,
call it patience,
call it peace?
Face it.

Shame on you.
Would you praise them sweetly
just to cut them later?
Tell me—
would you smile today
and curse them tomorrow?
This is not the real you (Blind envy dressed as devotion)
Come on—get real.

This is not the real you.
Do you look down on others
to feel taller?
Shame on you.
Are you truly less capable—
or just afraid to stand?
This is not the real you (Blind with ambition, full of rage)
Come on—get real.

How long will you let their hands shape you,
soft as clay, silent as blame?
How long will you pull others into the fire,
then claim innocence?
Will you stay asleep,
a body without a voice,
a crown without a head?
Heyyy
This isn’t right—
you know it isn’t.
How long will you poison with whispers,
bend truth, bruise, threaten?
How long will you swallow fear,
call it patience, call it peace?
But you don’t own your head, do you?
Hey
This isn’t right—
you know it isn’t.
How long will you poison with whispers,
bend truth, bruise, threaten?
How long will you swallow fear,
call it patience, call it peace?
Yes
Face it
Face it—Say it.
