Lyrics
Pretentious
Rap Intro -
Verse
My life, what you see - If I told you, you wouldn't believe, what I've been thru all these years. Trying to keep up a front cause that's what they want. Don't see the mistakes I've made and act like success is on my side. How did I get here - pretending for so long, I'm strong, not weak - so this shell I must leave..
Hook
Pretentious little girl - don't let them define who you should be - Make moves on your own stand strong, leave your true mark on this world.
Verse
Can I just be myself, grunge gear don't rock stiletto heals. Degrees went out and earned them all, but does that mean I can't stumble and fall? I'm asking for you to stand by me no matter what - let me be me. Your expectations are way too much. Shoes I can't fill and I'll never live up.
