about

*Sharing my struggles with living truthfully*
A consolatory response to "John the Con".
Let's call the 14-line monologue the 'Honest Sonnet'.

lyrics

It ain't easy
To be honest
To be honest
It ain't easy
To be
To be honest

And when you wake up
The truth
Comes freely

So breathe easy
Be honest
Be. Breathe deeply
Believe me
Be
Honest
Believe me
Be honest

It was too easy, to be honest
Schoolbag down in the empty house
Intel Inside, one hand on the mouse
The guilt on the other hand didn't help
But their firewall did, and the therapy
Adult: I see less
Reality screams and weans, she helps me get clean
Kicking booze is hardest, acting out others' darkness

Cross-town train to play Hamlet, nearly stepped too soon
Director's asking "what's up"
I'm Failed, for plagiarism
This is just between us
And now I'm saying it on a song
Be honest, we've all done some things wrong

It ain't easy
To be honest
It ain't easy
It ain't easy
To be
