Tough - Quinn XCII, Noah Kahan

Maybe it’s 'cause your mom never kissed you

If you ever cried, you’d wipe with muscle tissue

You bench pressing more than me’s not the issue

I know you’re actually weaker than that

Let’s open up and get deeper than that

Like why, why are you only vulnerable when no-one's around?

Your gym membership is not a crown

You’re not so tough

I know that nightlight’s on when you sleep

You’re not so tough

Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat

And I’m sure you’d win in an altercation

But you’re still insecure to me

Oh, so mess me up

I know you’re not so tough

Are you insecure that the steroids are causing hair loss?

That your Lulu shorts don’t quite vibe with your camo AirPods

And if I ran into you past sunset, I’d probably be scared, oh

I know you’re honestly weaker than that

I bet you know that you need to relax

And I don’t mean to come at you like it’s Watergate

My pale ghostly body’s purely water-weight

Yeah, I should probably substitute what is on my plate

But I still acknowledge those feelings inside

Let’s work on your habit to run or to hide

Like why, why are you only vulnerable when no-one's around?

Your gym membership is not a crown

You’re not so tough

I know that nightlight’s on when you sleep

You’re not so tough

Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat

And I’m sure you’d win in an altercation

But you’re still insecure to me

Oh, so mess me up

I know you’re not so tough

You’re not so tough

You’re not

You’re not so tough

You’re not

You’re not so tough

You’re not

You’re not so tough

You’re not

You’re not so tough

I know that nightlight’s on when you sleep

You’re not so tough

Yeah, you watch Eat Pray Love on repeat

And I’m sure you’d win in an altercation

But you’re still insecure to me

Oh, so mess me up

I know you’re not so tough
