Great Pretender Lyrics in English

[Chorus]
Oh, You’re A Great Pretender
The Influencer Who Always Spoke So Kindly
You’ve Got Your Friends And You’re Intricate
Well, But They Don’t Know How Sorry You Are
To The Naked Eye, Just A Passerby, Yeah
But I See The Carolina That You Left Behind, Yeah-yeah

[Verse 1]
So Put A Shot Glass Up And Go “Woo-woo”
Girl, You’ll Always Have Somethin’ I Desire
When The Clock Stands Up, It’s A New Day
You’ll Always Have Someone There Beside Ya’
I’ll Be Your Kickstand And Your Rider
I’ll Be Your Right Hand And Your Provider, Baby
You Need Someone Close That Can Give You Space
I’ll Be Your Nasa—But Naturally, You Could Stay
We Make The Capital: California, Usa, When You Show Up
Two Capricorns That Can Pay For They Own Stuff
I Owned Up, You Owned Up, Yeah, Yeah, Oh

[Chorus]
Oh, You’re A Great Pretender
The Influencer Who Always Spoke So Kindly (Ooh-ooh)
You’ve Got Your Friends And You’re Intricate (Ooh-ooh)
Well, But They Don’t Know How Sorry You Are
To The Naked Eye, Just A Passerby, Yeah (Ooh-ooh)
But I See The Carolina That You Left Behind, Yeah-yeah (Ooh-ooh)

[Verse 2]
Some More For Me, One More For Her Too (Woah)
Pop Off A Shirt And Hop Under Covers
Burn Through The– Uh, Burn Through The Rubbers
Watchin’ Shitty Movies, Skippin’ Mario Lopez
The Menu Wasn’t Hittin’, So We Ditched The Room Service
Went To The Lobby
And Then I Took A Pill And I Came Out Of My Body, Yeah

[Bridge]
So Put A Shot Glass Up And Make Eye Contact To Get Lucky
Pull Your Iphone Out, Take A Picture When The Food Comin’
Make Sure I’m Not In It
’cause I’m Not Here, We On Business
Business

Slowly Lyrics – Ed Sheeran | Play album

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Great Pretender Background

Unmask the layers of “Great Pretender”, the introspective fifth track from Dominic Fike’s Rocket mixtape, released on August 22, 2025. This alternative R&B gem blends indie pop and hip-hop swagger, weaving Fike’s smooth vocals and sun-drenched guitar riffs into a story of regret and hidden truths.

The lyrics explore the facade of a charming, social-media-savvy influencer and the vulnerable person beneath—someone tied to their roots, like “the Carolina they left behind.” With emotional depth and breezy rebellion, the song builds on the raw honesty of Sunburn’s “Think Fast” and the lo-fi charm of 14 Minutes’ “Bow.” Premiered live at Osheaga and Lollapalooza, “Great Pretender” stands out as a soulful confession in Fike’s evolving sound, inspired by personal growth and fatherhood.
