Title: “Still Me”
(Verse 1)
Late nights, stare at the ceilin’
Thoughts loud, can’t hide this feelin’
Tryna be everything they needed
But somehow I still ended up bleedin’
Said I’d be better, I meant it
Gave my heart, they still don’t get it
Every role, I played my part
Still feel like I fall apart
(Pre-Chorus)
Every time I look inside
All I see is where I lied
To myself, sayin’ I’m fine
But I’m runnin’ outta tries
(Chorus)
I failed as a daughter, I know
I failed as a sister, it shows
I failed every friend that got close
And I hate that the truth hurts the most
I failed in love, let it go
School got me feelin’ so low
Even God probably tired of me
At least that’s how it feels to me
But I’m still me… yeah
I’m still me… yeah
Even if I’m broken, I’m still me
(Verse 2)
Mirror don’t like me lately
Talk back like “you crazy”
Sayin’ I ain’t worth savin’
That voice gettin’ hard to escape it
But hold on… wait
Maybe I’m just human, I make mistakes
Carryin’ weight that ain’t mine to take
Tryna be perfect, that’s my mistake
(Pre-Chorus)
What if I don’t gotta be
Everything they want from me?
What if I just breathe, just be
And let myself heal slowly
(Chorus)
I ain’t the worst daughter, no
I’m just learnin’ as I go
I ain’t the worst friend you know
I just got wounds I don’t show
Love didn’t work, that’s okay
Grades don’t decide my place
And God still lookin’ at me
Like I’m more than what I see
I’m still me… yeah
I’m still me… yeah
Even when I’m fallin’, I’m still me
(Bridge)
I’m tired of carryin’ shame that ain’t mine
Tired of sayin’ sorry for just bein’ alive
Maybe I bend, but I don’t break
Maybe I’m more than my mistakes
(Outro)
So if I failed… I’ll try again
Not the same girl I was back then
Yeah I got scars, yeah I got pain
But I’m still standin’ through the rain
I’m still me…
And maybe that’s enough
