Tryin' my hardest to keep my head over water Truth is I'm numb to it, startin' to feel redundant We pick apart and compare and we tear each other down Losin' our minds so we act like we hate each other But I can't pretend no more Tryin' to be a friend but it's hard I ain't even mad, I know it's not your fault I'm not tryin' to offend no one We all play our part Try to fit in but I can't fake it like that Cold as ice, cold and we froze inside This world can be cold as ice Nothin' like they say it's like Keep the dreams close at night, yeah I'm bout to switch up, I'm tired of takin' the high road Don't gotta answer to nobody just cause you say so Fuck all the stereotypical shit, make my own rules Cause they never see all the pain and the struggle we go through Cause when you look in the mirror, it's kinda hard to be fearless When there's so much on your shoulders, I'm kinda feelin' the same way You see I preach independence but I'm too scared to be lonely I need somebody to hold me, just know you'll never control me But I just can't understand it Girls fuckin' dudes for some checks and it breaks my heart It's so sad cause I know you're better than that And I feel it too, I feel it too But it's nothin' new, it's nothin' new Cold as ice, cold and we froze inside This world can be cold as ice Nothin' like they say it's like Keep your dreams close at night, yeah Winter's comin' backwards, baby We don't change then we won't make it Tell me why you're hesitating Ask me how I do it, baby Check your priorities Baby girl, check your priorities Don't let these men tell you what you're gonna be Baby girl, check your priorities I need you, I need you I need you, I need you I need you, I need you I need you, I need you
