Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I learned the hard way
At my own front door
Promises were cheap
And love felt like war
My father left a shape
In every room he broke
[Pre-Chorus]
So I keep my guard up
Keep my hand on the lock
I read the small signs
I don’t fall for talk
[Chorus]
I don’t trust most men
I don’t trust most men
I know the pattern
I know the plan
Still, one small part of me
Still wants a better man
One small part of me
Wants proof, not scams
[Verse 2]
Family dinners taught me
Smiles can hide the knife
Uncles with their secrets
Brothers playing nice
Now I spot the shift
Before the story bends
[Pre-Chorus]
So I keep my guard up
Keep my name in my throat
If you want me soft
You’ll have to show me hope
[Chorus]
I don’t trust most men
I don’t trust most men
I know the pattern
I know the plan
Still, one small part of me
Still wants a better man
One small part of me
Wants proof, not scams
[Bridge]
Maybe somewhere out there
Someone learned to stay
Someone who can meet me
And not make me pay
Not every face is guilty
Not every hand is harm
But I won’t hand my heart out
For pretty words and charm
[Final Chorus]
I don’t trust most men
I don’t trust most men
I know the pattern
I know the plan
Still, one small part of me
Still wants a better man
One small part of me
Wants proof, not scams
[Outro]
If you’re real, then show me
Slow and plain and true
Break the old story
And I might choose you

Prompt
Female. A song about how I hate and don’t trust most men. My father and family ruined men for me. But a small part of me hopes maybe one day I’d find someone who would break the stereotype.
