[Verse 1] They say girls like me don’t make the headlines Don’t start revolutions or cross finish lines But we grow where we’re planted, stubborn and free With dirt on our hands and hearts like poetry [Pre-Chorus] We’ve been called too much or not enough Yet we rise, soft-spoken and hella tough [Chorus] Girls like me don’t ask for crowns We build kingdoms from the cold, hard ground We love too deep, cry when we’re mad Laugh through the mess, dance when we’re sad You can try to box us in, but we don’t break easy We bloom wild — yeah, girls like me [Verse 2] We break sometimes, but we never fold Carry stories we’ve never told Tried to fit in, but it wore us thin So we learned to love the skin we’re in [Pre-Chorus 2] They don’t see the fire we hold inside ’Til we turn and set the night alive [Chorus ] Girls like me don’t ask for crowns We build kingdoms from the cold, hard ground We love too deep, cry when we’re mad Laugh through the mess, dance when we’re sad You can try to box us in, but we don’t break easy We bloom wild — yeah, girls like me [Bridge] We’re the ones they count out ’Til we’re the ones they can’t stop talking about From church pews to back roads, we carry the glory Every scar, every storm — it’s a part of our story [Final Chorus] Girls like me don’t need a stage We turn our rage into silent change We love too deep, cry when we’re mad Laugh through the mess, dance when we’re sad You can try to box us in, but we don’t break easy We bloom wild — yeah, girls like me
