Lyrics

0:05Tune in to find my peace and solitude
0:09These empty rooms spin
0:10And I embrace the flaws of being human
0:13The black and white
0:15And sometimes the greys that stay for days
0:18The in between times
0:19The meantimes that make this song of life sing
0:23Play rest repeat read exactly what is written on the sheet
0:29Don't deviate they say
0:31But I will play what's best for me
0:35I'll press the keys and pull the strings
0:37Create a symphony that's mine
0:41And I'll spend my life penning my song my song
0:50And the verses I write will speak for me
0:57Good girls don't make history
0:59So I may never be what you assume
1:03Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
1:05If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
1:09Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone
1:13My song will carry on
1:15Let go
1:16I let my voice be heard then listen for the echo
1:20My own reverb is playing
1:23Cause I'm a movement
1:25There's dissonance sometimes I make mistakes
1:28Oh I'm human after all I'm not your expectations
1:33But play rest repeat that's what they ask of me
1:38Just stick to this melody and stay between the lines
1:42But I'll play what's best for me
1:45I'll ring the bells and crash the symbols
1:48My harmonious design
1:52And I'll spend my life penning my song my song
2:01And the verse I write will speak for me
2:07Good girls don't make history
2:09So I may never be what you assume
2:13Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
2:15If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
2:19Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone
2:23My song will carry on
2:25In my time here I wanna be revered and remembered
2:31Oh let them say I came I conquered
2:34So I won't fear and I can't blend in
2:39You can't replace me and you cannot erase me
2:42Cause my song will live on beyond time
2:50And I'll spend my life penning my song my song
2:59And the verses I write will speak for me
3:04Good girls don't make history
3:08So I may never be what you assume
3:11Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
3:13If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
3:17Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone
3:21My song will carry on
3:24And I'll spend my life penning my song my song
3:32And the verse I write will speak for me
3:37Good girls don't make history
3:40So I may never be what you assume
3:43Don't want your hooks or auto-tune
3:46If I'm off-key then that's alright with me
