[Verse 1]
You say I'm "too much"
then you say I'm cold
You keep the crown of being right
like it’s made of gold
You twist the story
till I can’t breathe
Somehow every single problem
ends up on me
[Pre-Chorus]
I hold my tongue till it bites back
tears on the sink, tryna stay intact
You call it drama when I speak my truth
but you love the peace I buy for you
[Chorus]
It’s not just me
You’re in this mirror too
All of these cracks
got your face running through
I won’t carry every cut
every blame, every bleed
You’re gonna have to see
it’s not just me
it’s not just me
[Verse 2]
You say “you’re crazy”
when I call you out
Laugh it off, change the subject
leave me full of doubt
I replay every moment
like I’m on trial
[low vocal register] But I’m done cross-examining
my own damn smile
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel that confused anger rise up slow
heart saying “stay,” soul saying “let go”
You call it nagging when I name your hurt
I call it healing when I choose my worth
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I’m tired of shrinking
just to fit your frame
Tired of praying over
a one-way flame
I’m learning to be softer
with the girl in my skin
[whispered vocals] If you can’t hold her story
you can’t stay in
[Chorus]
