No comparison

(Soft vocals over distant piano and bass rumble)

Green eyes in the mirror, curly hair outta place,

Countin’ every flaw while I stare at my face.

Stretch marks on my skin, used to hide ’em in shame,

Tryna fit a mold that was never made for my name.

Used to scroll all night, compare myself to strangers,

Tiny waist, perfect pics, actin’ like they never break.

Thought every guy would pick the girl with the loud laugh,

The skinny little sunshine while I’m stuck in my past.

They got the bubbly energy, effortless smiles,

I spent years tearin’ myself apart mile after mile.

Curly brown hair tied up, hoodie oversized,

Pretendin’ I’m okay while insecurity hides.

Every stretch mark told a story I ain’t wanna read,

Every mirror in the house felt like an enemy.

Green eyes full of tears, askin’, “Why not me?”

Till I realized I was losin’ who I’m meant to be.

I was chasin’ validation, runnin’ outta breath,

Tryna earn a kind of love that made me second guess.

If they only want perfection, let ‘em walk away,

‘Cause I finally found my worth and I ain’t givin’ that away.

Turn the bass up loud, let it shake the floor,

I don’t hate myself anymore.

They can choose whoever, I don’t care no more,

I ain’t fightin’ for attention, I know what I’m worth.

These stretch marks made me,

These green eyes saved me,

Curly hair wild like the woman God created.

No comparison, no competition,

I’m done askin’ for permission.

Now I walk in every room with my head held high,

Stopped apologizin’ for the space that I occupy.

I don’t need to be smaller just to fit their taste,

I spent too many years tryna shrink myself away.

Funny how the moment I stopped beggin’ to belong,

I found the kind of strength that was inside me all along.

They can keep the shallow love and picture-perfect lies,

I’m lookin’ for somebody who sees beyond my eyes.

‘Cause the right one won’t compare me to nobody else,

Won’t make me feel like I gotta be somebody else.

And if they pass me by? That’s cool, let ‘em leave—

I found the girl in the mirror and she’s finally free.

Turn the bass up loud, let it shake the floor,

I don’t hate myself anymore.

They can choose whoever, I don’t care no more,

I ain’t fightin’ for attention, I know what I’m worth.

These stretch marks made me,

These green eyes saved me,

Curly hair wild, yeah, I finally embrace it.

No comparison, no competition,

I’m done livin’ for their vision.

(808s fade under soft vocals)

I was never too much,

I was never not enough.

I just needed to stop lookin’ for love

In places that couldn’t see my worth.
