Confession
T.W.Z. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thoughts in my head, yeah I've been feeling lonely
Things in my past been comin' back to haunt me
So much I gotta do its all been weighin on me
But still I gotta find my way, find my way back, oh

We on the road to destruction, baby, lead the way
You insecure like you Issa Rae
Tried to give you my sweet love, like Anita Baker
This really felt like a dream, I guess I need to wake up

Blocked my last girl for you cause you'd act a fool
Now my eX got no value like we back in school
So please tell me why you still actin irrational
Gave up all my contacts for you and all my glasses too
(I dont see nobody)

Cutting everyone off is what I had to do
To show you that I love you, now you have the proof
But you was trouble, only tellin' half the truth
Drivin' me crazy, tryin' to take a different avenue

Can you blame me? Tellin' me I switched, but really I'm the same me
Gotta take a new direction, this road is too pedestrian
Sayin' I won't find another, will only get someone new elected
Thoughts in my head, yeah, I've been feelin' lonely

Things in my past been coming back to haunt me
So much I gotta do its all been weighin on me
But still I gotta find my way, find my way back ohh
Thoughts in my head, yeah, I've been feelin' lonely

Things in my past been coming back to haunt me
So much I gotta do its all been weighin on me
But still I gotta find my way, find my way back ohh
Keep my guard up, nowadays I'm too protective

I've been scarred up, nowadays I'm too selective
Said I'm too protective, and I'm too selective
Keep my guard up, nowadays I'm too protective
I've been scarred up, nowadays I'm too selective

All these flaws and you wanna act like you perfected
I'll send my location only if you address it

Keep my guard up, woah





Keep my guard up

Amber's lawyers should paraphrase the court dialogue from Gilligan's Island.

Thurston Howell III:
I'd like to charge Mary Ann with murder.

Professor Roy Hinkley:
Murder?

Thurston Howell III:
Her testimony's killing me.



Dee Jay

Here are some quick facts about Amber that we know that are proven:

1) He wasn't the only alcoholic and drug abuser. She drank 2 bottles of wine a day, took drugs as well by her own admission.

2) Caught lying about using the makeup that didn't exist back then to "cover her bruises" frequently, which was refuted by the makeup company in court.

3) Past domestic violence arrest against her ex, literally charged and arrested. Plus admitted to domestic violence against Johnny. Plus suspicion of domestic violence against her own sister (her sister was discussing it with her friends by the poolside in a video clip), and assaulted her ex-best friend in public. In contrast Johnny has no history of being violent towards women, every single one of his ex gfs and spouses all speak highly of him, and has said he's never laid hands on them.

4) Audio recording of her admitting to cutting his finger in Australia (not allowed in this trial due to technicalities), proving again that her testimony was a lie. (one of the voices on the tape is now deceased and can't testify)

5) Her psychologist lied about Amber having no domestic violence history and was called out by Johnny's attorney.

6) Has NO witnesses or evidence (all conveniently random strangers that she doesn't know or deceased people like the bodyguard)

7) Her longtime assistant testified under oath that she did not once see or hear any physical abuse from Depp or ever saw any injuries on Heard in all the years. She also testified under oath that Heard spit ON her face when she asked for a raise

8) She visits Dr Kipper's office the day after an alleged incident where she was severely beaten, the doctor's medical report states her in perfect health, with no injuries of any kind on her, also state her skin was in perfect condition. Her explanation was "this was a partial report and I didn't have time to get into the details with the doctor about the injuries". (Day 16 of trial cross examination)

9) Allegedly got her nose broken, hit multiple times, her scalp and hair ripped off, penetrated by a bottle, dragged over broken glass and got her arms and legs "pretty cut up", then somehow felt safe enough to take sleeping pills with her "attacker" in the same house, woke up the next day and made him coffee, then went to James Corden's show miraculously healed. No marks, no scars, no pictures, no medical report . Hair stylist saw no signs of abuse, the hair stylist would've been inches away from her face looking at all the details while working on her appearance, and she saw 0 injuries. Multiple witnesses (including 3 cops) saw no signs of abuse.

10) Allegedly got raped and assaulted multiple times on her honeymoon, then wrote Johnny a love letter saying "it was the most amazing and beautiful honeymoon any girl could've ever dreamed of". (evidence presented in Day 18 of trial)

11) Claimed she wanted to leave Johnny, but in all the audio clips she was the one begging him to stay. Claimed she always tried to de-escalate, but in audio clips she was always the aggressor preventing him from leaving and taunting him .

12) In all her "crying", there's never a single tear coming out of her eyes, even when reciting the most "traumatic experience".

13) Allegedly feared for her life but bought him a large knife.

14) Testified under oath that she was beaten by Johnny with huge chunky rings on all his fingers, said she was "hit so many times in the face over and over again she lost count". The photos taken the next day shows her face completely spotless without any injuries, when cross examined, she answers "there do not appear to be any injuries on my face in that photo".

15) Caught lying under oath again saying she "didn't receive money" from Johnny when she got $7 million, and lying about "never assaulted" Johnny when she admits to it on tape.

16) Proven once again as a liar when she made public statement of donating 7 million dollars for children's hospital but in reality donated exactly 0 dollars before she was called out, also caught lying under oath about donating the money. Her sworn statement was "I donated the entire settlement of $7 million to charity", when cross examined, she states "I did not lie, I pledged the $7 million, "pledged" and "donated" are synonymous, they mean the same thing." (Day 16 of trial cross examination)

17) Blackmailing Depp with her attorney, trying to make a deal for 3 of the adjoining penthouses where they both lived, 50k monthly expenses, 500k in attorney fees and the SUV Depp let her drive in exchange for not filing the protection order.

18) Her publishing of the op-ed "domestic violence" piece is timed perfectly with the release of Aquaman film, it didn't get published when they divorced, or before, or right after, but instead it was published right when Aquaman was being released and when the "Me Too" movement was grabbing the most headlines.

19) Amber Heard's team desperately tried to stop the trial from being publicly broadcasted while Depp's team made sure it was made public

20) Long time friend and co worker of Amber Heard telling about her hardcore cocaine and drug habit dating all the way back to 2008 when they were close associates, (youtube show called "Steven and Jason" and in the newest episode titled "We need to talk about AH").

21) Amber testified about having injuries such as “gross colored puss coming out of her temple” and “suffering a broken nose”, but when cross examined she changes the lines to “gross colored puss UNDER HER SCALP” and “FELT like a broken nose”, because she knew the evidence is about to show ZERO injuries visible on her. (How does she see gross colored puss under her scalp? With an X-ray machine??)

22) Allegedly got beaten up for FIVE YEARS and not a SINGLE injury shown on her face, no doctor visits, no dentists, no surgeons, no photos, despite countless appearances in public events and countless photos taken given her celebrity status, many of those public appearances were the night after "the beating", keep in mind the beating were all allegedly done by Depp with "huge chunky" rings on all his fingers, yet after five years of beating, she didn't need to visit the doctors once or show on sign of injury on her face, sounds like her facial bone density and durability of her skin can match that of armor platings.

23) Alleges Johnny slashed the soles of her feet, but was seen the next day walking completely normal, again no doctor visits or treatments of any kind even though she has a personal doctor on retainer.

24) Constantly changing details of her stories and allegations, she's already given 4 different versions of the poop incident, she has said "1: told security guard that she pooped and it was a practical joke gone wrong. 2: Johnny did it to frame her. 3: said it never happened and Johnny was gaslighting her. 4: said the tiny puppies did it."

25) Her lying under oath is not even worth mentioning anymore, there is too many to list, just to list a few in this trial alone. Lying about not receiving any money from Johnny, when in fact she received $7 million. Lying about having donated the money, when in fact she has donated $0 so far. Lying about never assaulted Johnny, when in fact she was recorded admitting to it multiple times. Lying about never assaulted anyone before, when in fact she's assaulted at least 4 that we have evidence of. Lying about her injuries, when a medical record showed absolutely no injuries.

26) She put someone through hell for years, publicly shamed and destroyed his career and life, just so she can be seen as a noble victim and use the attention and sympathy to advance her career and profile. She claims she's never wanted to be seen as a victim and wanted to move on, but appears in countless TV shows and articles talking about her "abuse" and "donation" non stop, literally appeared on every show she could to talk about her being a victim and being noble on the donation that never happened.

27) Amber's own friend, Tillet Wright, a long time close friend with Amber Heard, testified under oath that he's never seen or heard Amber being abused by Johnny Depp. (Day 20 of trial)

"She was supposed to turn towards the camera so we could get a shot of a bruise on the right side of her face."
Contradicts Amber's statement how the paparazzi just turned up. She knew!
