lyrics

i dont want to be a girl who
neatly folds her hands and stays in the right place
i don't want to be a girl who
bites her tongue and pleads to always have a pretty face

i don't want to be a girl who
puts down other girls or gently shoves the world away
i don't want to be a girl who
is afraid to be too loud and ashamed to take up space

my thoughts they are my own
and my life it's not a race
and my body is not a temple
but i pray it does stay safe
x2

i just wanna be a girl who
say what she thinks, doesn't hesitate to speak
i just wanna be a girl who
has a spine and uses it and is not described as meek

well maybe the meek will inherit the earth
but if im too weak to respond well then what is it worth
it shouldn't be so hard to put my feelings first
but i feel so right at home when i get hurt
x2

i just wanna be a girl who
is proud to be and happy she exists
i just wanna be a girl who
is so confident and doesn't write a song like this
