I've never heard it "counterfeit" used like this before, but it is used as an adjective in this sentence.

I must have missed the reply about this sentence being song lyrics. My apologies.

It is an interesting line and is most definitely a verb in this case.

Yes, "counterfeit" is an adjective meaning "fake." It's usually used to describe fake money being used illegally as real money.

@joshwhetstone Yep, sounds like a weird way of saying, "I'm fake, too." It's used in relation to money.

@wiredscatterbrain The lyrics say, "I counterfeit myself." This is different because this is used as a verb, not an adjective. It's different from "I'm counterfeit myself."

@DreamBeat As a verb, "to counterfeit" means "to create a fake."

@joshwhetstone Okay. I was talking in the context of the song mentioned by the person who asked the question. Not sure if that makes any difference, but I don't think there's much else to say on this topic
