Lyrics:
Haven’t seen myself in a while
Sometimes it’s hard to wake up
I can feel my face fold when I smile
Tired hands put on my make up
Just a method actress playing on my mattress
Remembering what I know
Just another day for me to try and practice
Being your freak show
I’m mad and I’m sad
Too quiet, too loud
Scandalous and not scared
I’m bad and I’m proud
I’m mad and I’m sad
I said it aloud
Sacred and not afraid
I’m bad and I’m proud
White man’s lust never paid my rent
Another day, another dad
Now it’s time to repent
I’m the best you’ve ever had
This is my skin light-filled brown and I’m not sorry
Baby, all I did was sit
You don’t know if you want to fuck me or destroy me
I’ll be your freak show for a bit
