Intro

Yeah
Verse 1
They built a list of rules before I learned to walk
Told me how to dress, how to act, how to talk
I colored outside every line they ever drew
Got called difficult for just being true
Mama said the world wasn't built for girls like me
Said I'd have to fight for every inch of free
So I sharpened up my voice instead of softening the blow
Decided long ago I wasn't built to go slow
Pre-Chorus
So watch me break the mold they made
(break the mold, break the mold)
I was never gonna play it safe
(break the mold, break the mold)
Chorus
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Call me trouble, call me too much, call me wild
I'd rather burn it down than live a life so mild
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Verse 2
They wanted me quiet, wanted me composed
Wanted me folded up like something pre-imposed
But I was never gonna fit inside their frame
I'd rather be remembered wild than play it tame
Every door they shut, I kicked it down instead
Every line they fed me, I rewrote it in my head
I'm not asking for a seat, I'm building my own table
This is the only kind of peace I'm able
Pre-Chorus
So watch me break the mold they made
(break the mold, break the mold)
I was never gonna play it safe
(break the mold, break the mold)
Chorus
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Call me trouble, call me too much, call me wild
I'd rather burn it down than live a life so mild
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Bridge
Break the mold
(break the mold)
Light the spark
(light the spark)
I was never meant to fade quiet
I was built to leave my mark
Chorus
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Call me trouble, call me too much, call me wild
I'd rather burn it down than live a life so mild
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the riot in the room, I'm the spark in the dark
(uh, oh-oh)
I'm the rule they wrote and broke before I left my mark
Outro
(uh)
Leave my mark
