SZA - The Anonymous Ones lyrics

Ever look at all the people
Seem to know exactly how to be?
(How to be, how to be now, how to be)
You think they don't need piles
Of prescriptions to function naturally?
(Functioning natural)
Take a look and you might just catch it
Stay a minute more
(Minute more, minute more now, minute more)
There's a little moment after
The sunny smile that eyes fall to the floor
(To the floor, to the floor now
To the floor)

And then truth starts peeking through
(Peeking through)
They don't lie like me and you
They can fake a smile too

Thе anonymous ones never lеt you
See the hate they carry


(They carry, they carry, they carry)
All those anonymous ones never name
The quiet pain they bury
(They bury, they bury, they bury)
Keep on keeping secrets that they
Think they have to hide
What if everybody's secret is they
Have that secret side? And to know
To know we're not alone is
All we're hoping for
I don't wanna be anonymous
I ain't gotta be anonymous
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore (Anymore)

Spot the girl who stays in motion
Spins so fast so she won't fall
(World's spinning so fast, spinning so fast)
She's built a wall of her achievements
To keep out the question
Without it is she worth anything at all?

And truth starts peeking through
They don't lie like me and you
They can fake a smile too

The anonymous ones never let you
See the hate they carry
(They carry, they carry, they carry)
All those anonymous ones never name
The quiet pain they bury
(They bury, they bury, they bury)
I don't wanna be anonymous
I ain't gotta be anonymous
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore

The parts we can't tell, we carry them well
But that doesn't mean they're not heavy
The parts we can't tell, we carry them well
But that doesn't mean they're not heavy
(I don't wanna be anonymous anymore)
The parts we can't tell, we carry them well
But that doesn't mean they're not heavy
Heavy

Anonymous ones never let you see
The hate they carry
(They carry, they carry, they carry)
All the anonymous ones never name
The quiet pain they bury
Keep on keeping secrets that they
Think they have to hide
What if everybody's secret is they
Have that secret side? And to know
To know we're not alone is
All we're hoping for
I don't wanna be anonymous
I ain't gotta be anonymous
I don't wanna be anonymous anymore
