Not your Mirror

Mm

Yeah (laughing)

Relax

Why you always talk loud when I walk in the room?

Same laugh, same fit, same “look at me” perfume

You bend your whole spine just to get a reaction

I don’t gotta move, still I’m causing distraction

You say “I’m not like her,” then copy my tone

Post thirst with a caption like you didn’t know

You need eyes on you just to feel okay

I need silence, space, and my bills paid

You flirt like it’s charity, smile for the feed

Act sweet, play dumb, beg boys to believe

I don’t compete, I don’t audition

I exist and it fucks with your mission

You want applause, I want peace

That’s the difference, let me be

You want attention, I want freedom

You want a stage, I want meaning

You keep screaming “pick me, pick me”

I’m busy being hard to reach

You twist yourself just to be seen

I don’t perform, I don’t compete

You want approval, I want quiet

And yeah—it’s annoying how you try it

You call it confidence, I call it loud insecurity

Every post a cry for validation, no purity

You study my moves like it’s part of the test

Then act surprised when you still feel pressed

You laugh too hard, touch too much

Say “I hate drama” but you live for the rush

You say “I’m real,” but you shift your shape

Depending on whoever’s watching your face

I don’t hate women, let me say it clear

I hate the ones who disappear

Just to be digestible, cute, and chosen

I’d rather be whole than held for a moment

I don’t dim my light to fit

If it bothers you, that’s it

You want attention, I want freedom

You want a stage, I want meaning

You keep screaming “pick me, pick me”

I’m busy being hard to reach

You twist yourself just to be seen

I don’t perform, I don’t compete

You want approval, I want quiet

And yeah—it’s annoying how you try it

I don’t need to be desired to exist

I don’t need a gaze to know I’m legit

I don’t soften my edges to make you relax

I don’t play small just to get text back

Say my name, bite your tongue

You hate me ‘cause I’m not undone

I’m not bitter, I’m just awake

There’s a difference you can’t fake

(beat switch — darker, slower)

You want attention, I want peace

You want a crown, I want sleep

You want a mirror, I want space

Stop projecting all that need on me

I don’t hate you, I just won’t play

I won’t shrink, I won’t explain

You want approval, I want quiet

And yeah—it’s annoying how you try it

Mm

Not your mirror

Not your stage
