Systemic Expectations

(Verse 1)You told me that my skirt was way too short to wear.Just to hide your own insecurities and stand there.Trying to control me just to soothe your pride.I starved myself to fit the mold you certified.(Chorus)I am so sick of your systemic expectations.I am so sick of smiling through the isolation.You try to dim my light and call it preparation.But all your commentary feels like a violation.I am allowed to claim my own autonomy.I’m breaking out of your distorted hierarchy.(Verse 2)You twist the truth around until I think I'm wrong.Playing mind games with me all night long.You set the standards then you watch me fall.An unachievable aesthetic plastering the wall.I'm so done letting you mess with my brain.I refuse to let society erase my name.(Bridge)Don't call me crazy.Don't minimize the boundaries that you broke.I spent a lifetime suffocating in your smoke.The fear is turning into pure retaliation.A sudden, violent liberation.(Outro)No more rules.No more letting you dictate.I am taking back control of my own fate.Hear me loud.I am shouting now.
