Act Like You Know

Act Like You Know

(Verse 1)
I walk into the room with my head held high
Pretend I’m bulletproof, even though I’m shy
I wear this coat of confidence, it’s all I’ve got
Hiding the fear I feel when I’m caught

I don’t have the answers, but I play the game
If I act like I do, they won’t know I’m just the same
So I smile and nod, like I’ve got it all
While deep inside, I’m trying not to fall

(Pre-Chorus)
They’ll never see the cracks, the doubts in my mind
I’m just here to fool ’em, to leave it all behind
Fake it till you make it, that’s the way I go
Hoping that one day, I’ll actually know

(Chorus)
Act like you know, fake it real good
Even when you’re lost, misunderstood
Stand tall, don’t let them see you shake
You’ve got to sell the story, for your own sake
Act like you know, like you’ve got it right
Put on a show, and own the spotlight
They’ll respect what they think they see
But the truth is, I’m just trying to be me

(Verse 2)
I’m spinning stories, painting a scene
Telling them all the things I’ve never really seen
I walk the line between truth and lie
Just hoping they’ll believe it when I pass them by

The pressure’s on, but I’ve learned to wear
A mask of courage, to hide my despair
So I talk big, like I’m in control
But inside I’m scrambling, trying to fill the hole

(Bridge)
One day I’ll drop the act, let go of the fear
But for now, I’ll keep pretending they’re all here
Watching, waiting, thinking I’ve won
When all I’ve really done is run

(Outro)
Act like you know, it’s all part of the show
But deep down, I’m just trying to grow.
