Back to the Streets (where you belong)

Four years playing little miss divine
Halo tilted just right, every word by design
Oh, the crowd sure loved your grace
But backstage, girl what a mess of a face

I gave you the lead, front and center lights
Watched you lie like it paid by the night
Six months in curtain drops
Surprise! The angel hits the props

And your folks painted me as the beast?
While their darling danced with the priest of deceit
They sipped your stories like Sunday tea
But sugar hides a bitter spree

So thanks for the show, it was quite the ride
You fooled them all but not my pride
Wore white like a saint, but girl, please
You were hell in heels, dressed up to deceive
I used to pray for us, now I toast alone
To the devil I dodged and the peace I own

You had a thing for mirrors, not for truth
Taught me more than Sunday school ever could do
Like how wolves wear perfume and quote the psalms
With a smile while they sharpen their charms

You made me question my own name
Played love like it was just a game
Now I sleep with the windows wide
No ghosts, no guilt just peace inside

You had your mask, I had my doubts
But storms like time flush the liars out
You tried to wrap shame in pretty style
But I walked off wearing my own smile

So thanks for the show, it was quite the ride
You fooled them all but not my pride
Wore white like a saint, but girl, please
You were hell in heels, dressed up to deceive
I used to pray for us, now I toast alone
To the devil I dodged and the peace I own

No encore, no tears, no maybe one day
Just a front-row seat to your slow decay
Your lies aged bad, like bottom-shelf wine
And me? I'm shining while you flatline

So thanks for the show, applause is due
To the queen of fake and her loyal crew
You almost had me hats off, well played
But the mask cracked, and damn I got away
You were my lesson, now I’ve grown
Here’s to the demon I'm glad I’ve known

Cheers, sweetheart enjoy the flames of hell you always called home
You lost the guy who once fell for the dream
But thank God, and Jesus Christ I broke clean
Now I'm flying whole
And that’s one thing you’ll never be
