Ego

Baby, I'm in my head, but I can't put it off for another day
That mask that you wear's gotta fall for me to really see your face
You can't hide from me if you're serious about us, babe
You can try to connect, but you're always in your own way

Wish you could lay down your ego, and say how you want it
Say how you want it
You can't deliver the things that you promised, you're always guarded
You're always guarded
But when you feel like you find yourself
I hope you settle down with someone perfect for you
And lay down your ego, and say what you're wanting
Find you an honest love

I guess that psychic was right when he told me that
I was a maker of kings (maker of kings)
I really wish that things could be different
And I could end up being queen (queen, yeah)
I know I deserve to be held the way that I can hold (hold)
I've helped to build all these castles that were never home

Wish I could lay down my ego, and say what I wanted (say what I wanted)
Say what I'm wanting (oh)
I can't deliver the things that I promised, I'm always guarded
I'm always guarded
But when I feel like I find myself
I hope I settle down with someone perfect (perfect) for me (for me)
Lay down my ego and say what I'm wanting (wanted)
Find me an honest love
