My Song

Alessia Cara - My Song Tune in to find my peace and solitude These empty rooms spin, and I embrace the flaws of being human The black and white... and sometimes the greys that stay for days The in between time The meantime that make this song of life sing Play, rest, repeat, read exactly what is written on the sheet "Don't deviate, " they say But I will play what's best for me I'll press the keys and pull the strings Create a symphony that's mine And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song And the verses I write will speak for me Good girls don't make history So I may never be what you assume Don't want your hooks or auto-tune If I'm off-key then that's alright with me Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone My song will carry on Let go I let my voice be heard, then listen for the echo My own reverb is playing Cause I'm a movement There's dissonance, sometimes I make mistakes So I'm human after all, I'm not your expectations But play, rest, repeat, that's what they ask of me Just stick to this melody and stay between the lines But I'll play what's best for me I'll ring the bells and crash the cymbals My harmonious desire And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song And the verses I write will speak for me Good girls don't make history So I may never be what you assume Don't want your hooks or auto-tune If I'm off-key then that's alright with me Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone My song will carry on In my time here, I wanna be revered and remembered Oh let them say I came, I conquered So I won't fear and I can't blend in You can't replace me and you cannot erase me Cause my song will live on beyond time And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song And the verses I write will speak for me Good girls don't make history So I may never be what you assume Don't want your hooks or auto-tune If I'm off-key then that's alright with me Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone My song will carry on And I'll spend my life penning my song, my song And the verses I write will speak for me Good girls don't make history So I may never be what you assume Don't want your hooks or auto-tune If I'm off-key then that's alright with me Oh and maybe you will learn this when I'm gone My song will carry on
