what matters to me

[Verse 1] I don't want fake smiles On my screen all day I want one real friend Who can hear me say I want my name soft When it leaves your mouth I want to feel safe When the world goes loud [Pre-Chorus] Keep my heart unboxed Keep my thoughts alive If I lose myself What do I survive? [Chorus] What matters to me? My peace, my people What matters to me? A life that feels legal What matters to me? Truth in my hands (what matters to me) Not fitting their plan [Verse 2] I want slow mornings No one on my neck I want my own pace I want my own steps I want to look in And still like the view Not built for applause Just built to be true [Pre-Chorus] Keep my heart unboxed Keep my thoughts alive If I lose myself What do I survive? [Chorus] What matters to me? My peace, my people What matters to me? A life that feels legal What matters to me? Truth in my hands (what matters to me) Not fitting their plan [Bridge] If I go quiet Don't call it gone I'm just getting honest I'm just getting on I won't trade my soul For a little shine I want what stays When the room goes blind [Chorus] What matters to me? My peace, my people What matters to me? A life that feels legal What matters to me? Truth in my hands (what matters to me) Not fitting their plan
