Not Your Cliché (versie 2)

Intro

(uh)

Yeah

Verse 1

Everybody's got an opinion on my life

How I dress, who I love, how I survive the night

I stopped reading comments somewhere back in spring

Stopped letting strangers decide what my worth should bring

I am not a debate, not a topic for your group chat

I'm a whole damn person, not a headline or a stat

You can keep your thinkpiece, keep your hot take

I'm too busy living to clean up your mistake

Pre-Chorus

So scroll on past if you don't like what you see

(what you see, what you see)

I wasn't put here for your sympathy

(what you see, what you see)

Chorus

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

This is my life, not a story for the masses

I see right through your judgment, see right through your glasses

(uh, oh-oh)

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

(uh, oh-oh)

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

Verse 2

You don't know my mornings, don't know my late nights

Don't know the battles I won outside your sightline

You just see the highlight, the polished final cut

Never see the work it took to get me up

So keep your hot opinions, keep your loud advice

I didn't ask permission and I won't ask twice

I'm not here for your approval, never have been, never will

I'm here for me, and that's a feeling you can't kill

Pre-Chorus

So scroll on past if you don't like what you see

(what you see, what you see)

I wasn't put here for your sympathy

(what you see, what you see)

Chorus

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

This is my life, not a story for the masses

I see right through your judgment, see right through your glasses

(uh, oh-oh)

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

(uh, oh-oh)

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

Bridge

Not your story

(not your story)

Not your show

(not your show)

This is mine to write completely

This is mine to own

Chorus

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

This is my life, not a story for the masses

I see right through your judgment, see right through your glasses

(uh, oh-oh)

I don't perform for an audience that doesn't pay

(uh, oh-oh)

I'm not a character, I'm not your cliché

Outro

(uh)

Not your cliché

Yeah
