[Verse 1]
Boxing world it’s a boxing
Can’t find love in a boxing world
TV tells you that I hate you
World tells you I’m gon’ knock you out
Toxic world is a toxic
Ain’t no love in a toxic world
The world gon’ say that I’m not human
They want to see that you watch me burn
You are the one that I go home to
Imperfect love but I still chose you
Gave you my life but I still owe you, ah
And when I’m on zero o
I still know that you need love
I still know that you need gold
Toxic world but we still love
[Chorus]
I want you to be proud of me
Don’t want you to suffer silently (don’t want you to)
Only if you see this side of me
It’s hard to leave
Are you proud of me?
‘Cause I’m proud of you you you
[Post-Chorus]
Ohhh, (all the time)
I don’t have the strength if I’m with you
I’m with you
You gon’ burn me down (down again, all the time)
I don’t have the strength if I’m with you (babe)
I’m with you
You gon’ burn me
(But you know too)
[Verse 2]
You are the one that I go home to
Imperfect love but I still chose you
Gave you my life but I still owe you ah
And when I’m on zero o
I still know that you need love
I still know that you need gold
Toxic world but we still love
