Smile For Me

Smile for me

She was daddy's little girl, came from a small town

The type of chick that everybody would talk about

Only 19, but her body was mean: she was a beauty queen

So she moved to Hollywood to pursue a dream

And just like she thought she would, she hit it big

Signed a deal, and every day she had a gig

It was crazy all the sudden, she had all the success now

But the pressure had her stressed out

And she was always getting drunk now, always in the club now

With all the cool new friends, who had the drugs round

So they would skip the lines, then they'd sniff the lines

And pretty soon, she was doing this shit all the time

And it was cool; at least she thought it was

Till she couldn't smile without all the drugs

She was a beautiful girl, but inside she was hurting

That's why she's hiding cuts all under her David Yurmans

It's okay not to be okay, it's okay not to be okay sometimes Smile for me, smile for me

Everything gon' be just fine

Smile for me, smile for me

Everything gon' be just fine

See, he was born in a football town

Was the kind of kid who never put his football down

See, his mama was a teacher and his pops used to play

Back in the day, he was top quarterback in the state

But hey, nowadays his son's wearing that letterman

Pops been drilling him his whole life to play like a veteran

And damn, all of these touchdowns have always been part of the plan

But that plan wasn't his

Life feeling like a lie, he was scared he couldn't live any longer

That's why them pain meds getting stronger

The same ones that he said for his shoulder

Thoughts in his head getting colder

Cause his reality was too embarrassing to let his parents in

And anybody at all, he had nobody to call

They wouldn't get it or accept it

So he filled his mouth up with pills so they'd never know

Feeling like I'm falling down, falling down

And I'm calling out, calling out

Feel like I'm falling

Smile for me

Feeling like I'm falling down, falling down

And I'm calling out, calling

Smile for me
