[Verse 1]
Came home
Floor was clean
Too clean
Closet door open
Drawers all empty
He stood there
Arms crossed
Like he’d won a war
Said
“Told you last time
I don’t want that in my house anymore”
[Chorus]
I said
Screw you
Dad
You don’t get to name me
Tear my flag
But you can’t erase me
You raised a kid
You never tried to see
You got a son in your head
But that ain’t me
Screw you
Dad
I’m still gonna be me
[Verse 2]
My favorite skirt
Gone with the trash
Lipstick I saved for
Special days
Smashed
You yelled
“I raised a son”
Like that was all I’d ever be
Funny how you talk about love
While you’re throwing parts of me
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You can burn my stuff
You can slam each door
But I’ll buy it all back
Then I’ll buy some more
You can shout my dead name
’Til your voice runs out
I’ll be louder than your anger
I’m not living in your doubt
[Chorus]
