[Intro]
Ebm
Too many faces, too many faces, too many faces
[Verse 1]
    Ebm  Ddim                             Ebm
Yeah, what's your definition of success? (ayy!)

                  Ddim                              Ebm
I don't trust the thoughts that come inside my head (woo!)

                   Ddim                             Ebm
I don't trust this thing that beats inside my chest

                   Ddim                     Ebm
Who I am and who I wanna be cannot connect; why?

              Ddim                            Ebm
Don't think I deserve it? You get no respect (woo!)

                    Ddim
I just made a couple mil', still not impressed

                  Ebm              Ddim
Let You Down goes triple platinum, yeah, okay, okay, I guess (ayy!)

            Ebm                                     Ddim
Smile for a moment then these questions startin' to fill my head, not again!
[Chorus]
Ebm             Ddim                         Ebm
I push away the people that I love the most; why? (woo!)

                Ddim                        Ebm
I don't want no one to know I'm vulnerable; why? (woo!)

                   Ddim                       Ebm
That makes me feel weak and so uncomfortable; why? (ayy!)

               Ddim                          Ebm
Stop askin' me questions, I just wanna feel alive

        Ddim
Until I die—this isn't Nate's flow (woo!)

            Ebm              Ddim
Just let me rhyme; I'm in disguise

           Ebm                     Ddim
I'm a busy person, got no time for lies; one of a kind

           Ebm                     Ddim
They don't see it; I pull out they eyes; I'm on the rise!

          Ebm                    Ddim
I've been doin' this for most my life with no advice (woo!)

        Ebm                      Ddim
Take my chances, I just roll the dice, do what I like

     Ebm                  Ddim
As a kid, I was afraid of heights, put that aside

        Ebm                      Ddim
Now I'm here and they look so surprised, well so am I, woo!
[Verse 2]
Ebm                           Ddim
  They don't invite me to the parties but I still arrive

Ebm                           Ddim
  Kick down the door and then I go inside

              Ebm                    Ddim
Give off that "I do not belong here" vibe

                                 Ebm               Ddim
Then take the keys right off the counter, let's go for a ride

Ddim
Why do y'all look mortified? (ayy!)

Ebm                    Ddim
I keep to myself, they think I'm sorta shy, organized

Ebm                     Ddim
Let You Down's the only song you've heard of? Well then you're behind (woo!)

Ebm         Ddim                                                   Ebm
Story time; wish that I could think like Big Sean does, but I just can't decide (aah!)

            Ddim
If I should stick my knife inside of Pennywise
[Chorus]
Ebm                     Ddim             Ebm
I, I don't care what anybody else thinks—lies (haha!)

         Ddim                   Ebm
I do not need nobody to help me—lies

          Ddim                          Ebm
I kinda feel guilty 'cause I'm wealthy; why?

        Ddim                                      Ebm
I don't understand, it's got me questionin' like, "Why?

            Ddim
Just tell me why"—not back to this flow

  Ebm            Ddim
Inside I feel divided

                        Ebm               Ddim
Back when I ain't had a dime, but had the drive

                   Ebm                  Ddim                         Ebm
Back before I ever signed, I questioned life, like, "Who am I, man?" Woo!
[Verse 3]
                     Ddim
Nothin' to me's ever good enough

                                   Ebm                           Ddim
I could be workin' for twenty-four hours a day and think I never did enough

                                      Ebm                                 Ddim
My life is a movie but there ain't no tellin' what you're gonna see in my cinema (no!)

                                     Ebm                             Ddim
I wanna be great but I get it in the way of myself and I think about everything that I could never be

                       Ebm
Why do I do it though? Ayy, yeah

    Ddim
Why you always lookin' aggravated?

                       Ebm
Not a choice, you know I had to make it

          Ddim                                                                  Ebm
When they talk about the greatest, they gon' probably never put us in the conversation

     Ddim
Like somethin' then I gotta take it

                       Ebm
Write somethin' then I might erase it

       Ddim
I love it, then I really hate it

                                    Ebm
What's the problem, Nathan? I don't know!

                Ddim                           Ebm
I know I like to preach to always be yourself (yeah)

                        Ddim                        Ebm
But my emotions make me feel like I am someone else

                    Ddim
Me and pride had made a pact that we don't need no help

      Ebm               Ddim
Which feels like I'm at war inside myself but I forgot the shells

Ebm                     Ddim
I hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell

Ebm                         Ddim
A lot of people know me, but not a lot know me well

Ebm                     Ddim
 Hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell

Ebm                          Ebm
A lot of people know me, but not a lot know me well
[Outro]
Ebm
Too many faces, too many faces, too many faces
