Yeah, yeah
Turn the lights low
Mm
Everybody walkin’ like they programmed souls
Same fake smile, same hearts turned cold
If you think too loud, they shut you down
One wrong step and you’re out the crowd
They look away
Like you disappeared
Too real, too different
That’s what they fear
If you don’t follow all their rules
You don’t belong, belong
No access to their perfect world
Where every copy sings the same song
But I won’t change my face tonight
Just to fit inside their view
I’d rather stand here all alone
Than become somebody new
Oh-oh-oh
Locked outside the door
Oh-oh-oh
I’m not theirs anymore
They build a kingdom made of mirrors and control
Tryna trade your fire for a scripted role
But I was never born to play pretend
I lose myself if I just bend
No chain on me, no puppet strings
No fake crown, no diamond rings
You call me reckless, I call it free
I’d rather be lost than be what you need
Maybe I’m the outsider
Maybe that’s my place
But I can still shine brighter
Without hiding my face
If you don’t follow all their rules
You don’t belong, belong
But I don’t need their validation
To know where I belong
Even if they shut me out
I’ll keep dancing through the blue
’Cause being real is worth more
Than being loved by you.
