[Intro]
LEXI:
My mom used to tell me a story
Sometimes I think it’s kinda boring
Used to call her “mommy”
But how she act like she don’t love me.
Used to call her “baby”
My life always starts with a maybe
Now everybody hates me
Can somebody please save me?
[VERSE 1]
City talk, I’m halfway gone
Have to wear a slutty gown
Just to win a stupid crown.
The silence thickens
Red lights in the distance
Sometimes it’s too quiet
I still enjoy the silence.
Too much noise
They think I don’t have a voice
Everybody always shames me
For not looking pretty.
[Pre Chorus]
How can I talk
With my heart in a cage
Cuz the second I wake
Too much pressure to take.
Drowning too much in my sorrows
Thinking it’d be better tomorrow
It’s just a repeating pattern
Does anyone even think I matter?
[Chorus]
My mom used to tell me a story
Sometimes I think it’s kinda boring
Used to call her “mommy”
But how she act like she don’t love me.
Used to call her “baby”
My life always starts with a maybe
Now everybody hates me
Can somebody please save me?
[VERSE 2]
Nobody cares
They act like I’m not there.
My mama ain’t much help
She’s happy when I’m not around
Pretty purses
Got shamed for cursing
Girls ain’t free
But yet they think I’m crazy.
[Pre Chorus]
How can I forgive
For what everyone did
Cuz they act like I ain’t enough.
I’m so sick to my stomach
And my heart is hurting
Can somebody show me the way out?
[Chorus]
My mom used to tell me a story
Sometimes I think it’s kinda boring
Used to call her “mommy”
But how she act like she don’t love me.
Used to call her “baby”
My life always starts with a maybe
Now everybody hates me
Can somebody please save me?
[Bridge]
I’m too old to cry
So I keep everything bottled inside.
They think I’m too insane
So I just push myself away
They think I’m too much
I’m just trying to eat my lunch!
They say I’m not pretty.
That’s when I had enough!
[Final Chorus]
My mom used to tell me a story
Sometimes I think it’s kinda boring
Don’t wanna her “mommy”
I don’t care if she doesn’t love me.
I refuse to call her “baby”
My life will never ever start with a maybe
Don’t care if everybody hates me
At least, Im being myself
Don’t wanna go along with the script
That I think I have to play along
I’m gonna stick my tongue out
They can’t touch me now!
They can be mad!
But for once I’m glad!
[Outro]
If they still hate me
Who cares if my life starts with a maybe!
At least I know who i am
I won’t shut myself down again.
