[Verse]
I’ve been labeled twice, and I used it well, tried to get my teachers to move me along. Said that I was special and needed attention, but nowadays everyone has attention deficit. And other labels come with preconceived notions, I thought that I was just going with the motions. But now my eyes are opened what could I be, if I gave myself a normal identity?
[Pre chorus]
This is the downfall, of a child. This is the downfall, of someone mild.
[Chorus]
I need a reinvention, oh yea it’s finally happening, no longer a teenage dirt bag, yea I’m like four years past that. I’ve been told the world is scary, being yourself comes with commentary, you won’t change my political stance, but you’re killing the whimsy and the need to prance.
[Verse]
How am I supposed to be a functioning human, if I always do things that are dumb? How am I supposed to get a job, if potential employers know my insta life? I haven’t grown up since I was a kid, and it came back to bite me yes it already did. I never even thought of trying to fit in, but now I’m having my second identity crisis.
[Pre chorus]
This is the downfall, of a free spirit who’s diagnosed. This is the downfall, of someone who wants a normal life the most.
[Chorus]
I need a reinvention, oh yea it’s finally happening, no longer a teenage dirt bag, yea I’m like four years past that. I’ve been told the world is scary, being yourself comes with commentary, you won’t change my political stance, but you’re killing the whimsy and the need to prance.
[Bridge]
You can’t change that I am Christian, you can’t change that I’m a woman, but I can change and accept the fact, that I’m older and there’s no looking back. My hobbies should be cooking and cleaning, I’ll give it up, there’s no more dreaming, in five years it’s nine to five for me, I gotta accept reality.
[Chorus]
I need a reinvention, oh yea it’s finally happening, no longer a teenage dirt bag, yea I’m like four years past that. I’ve been told the world is scary, being yourself comes with commentary, you won’t change my political stance, but you’re killing the whimsy and the need to prance.
