I thought when I grow up That I’d have it figured out – ouch Always fighting with the fear of time running out, out Hearing prodigies at seventeen with that kind of clout While I’m setting up my second Spotify account Monthly listens going down, down, down, ah No I don’t really care about that But I gotta figure out how I’m paying for myself now You don’t get views handed to you on a plate You don’t get big by mistake Gotta keep working hard giving luck handles To hold on to, too much to do Why don’t I sit back and wait for viral views Like the kids do, make it on the news Talk to Ellen DeGeneres ‘bout my overnight sensation Cash my check in and never hear ‘bout me again – no I don’t want the money, The clout, or the glory It’s boring to blend in I just wanna make a difference in my own way At my own pace, get my own place Self-sustain, in my own lane Not relying on the online games I thought if I glowed up I’d be happy with myself - hah Changed my hair every time that my brain wasn’t well With the constant of music supporting me throughout ‘Til I realised I kinda like my hair now Maybe I should stick it out When my image fit myself, didn’t use it to hide But to thrive, self-expression not a disguise I tried to pretend to be something that I’m not ‘Til I snapped out of it and stopped How was I meant to find sense of self When I made no sense, now I look back with two cents Image is not a way to hide And my genre? I know that I was tired of mine You gotta drop the labels and restrictions you’re putting on If the people react, gotta move along I don’t want the money, The clout, or the glory It’s boring to blend in I just wanna make a difference in my own way At my own pace, get my own place Self-sustain, in my own lane Not relying on the online games I need a fresh start not to run from who I am But to open my heart and express the way I can Through my words, through my sound, through my name I know it feels different but the heart ain’t changed I got the freedom to make what I love And the thought of people leaving me is scary enough But the idea that they think authenticity’s gone Is truly terrifying, so I’mma prove that they’re wrong

Ghost 03:36
I remember you I remember the past like it’s still true And I remember when I remember when stars were in your eyes This is overdue But I’m scared I’d rather not know the truth No, if you don’t love me I don’t know what I’d do So I can learn to ignore this inkling If you can learn to fake more convincing Convincing But I long to have someone to hold me close ‘Cause now you’re feeling like a ghost And I long to bring some life back to your love Don’t tell me that you think it’s gone for good I remember how I remember how you acted, how you acting now Ain’t right - I don’t know, I don’t know why Stars fell out your eyes But I can let it go Just repress it better I swear that I’ll never mention it, no, we’re both scared of We’re both scared of letting go If I can pretend that you still want me You could convince yourself you love me Still love me But I long to have someone to hold me close ‘Cause now you’re feeling like a ghost And I long to bring some life back to your love Don’t tell me that you think it’s gone for good You picked up my pieces to let ‘em go Now, after all I let you know About me, doubt me, run and scream and shout me down When you know that I’d never go that low I am sick and tired of your innocent persona, with that Attitude that’s lurking it’s like I don’t even know you anymore Out the door, ‘cause I know my worth And I know the pain is worth it in the long term No, I don’t even know why I held out so long I knew our love was gone, but I wanted something strong To keep my senses kicking even if it’s not existing anymore I couldn’t bring myself to walk out that door ‘Cause it represented giving up on the idea of somebody who loved me And maybe I knew that I’d just be really fucking lonely But if you’re a ghost, you need to pass on by So, go - I promise I won’t cry

Fall For Me 02:41
Hey! Hey! Woah, woah I, I wouldn’t mind, baby, if you fell for me I’d like all the attention, the power to reject you ‘Cause for once it isn’t me who’s getting hurt I, I couldn’t bring myself to try But I could call the shots, not getting walked across For once in my fucking life Can’t be what I’d love to be Can’t make you fall in love with me Can’t make you fall for, fall for me Can’t make you fall for, fall for me I know revenge would feel so sweet Why don’t you fall for, fall for me Hey! Hey! You know I, I’m not the type to mess with a poor girl’s heart I wouldn’t if I could, and I couldn’t if I wanted to ‘Cause I’m just not that good, I’m pathetic If they flirt once, I’m addicted Not hard to predict But I am tired of being the one let down Imagine how good it’d feel to have power It’s what I’d love to see But I can’t make you, Can’t make you Can’t make you Can’t!- ouch Can’t make you fall for, fall for me Can’t make you fall for, fall for me I know revenge would feel so sweet Why don’t you fall for, fall for me (x3)
