[Intro] Love Love, they think they know you Love Love, I know better Everybody got a story I'm about to set it straight [Verse 1] You don't shrink for nobody Tall in the room, loud on purpose You built yourself by hand No map, no degree, no mercy You clock fake from a mile out Zero bullshit, zero patience Try to move you? Good luck You don't bend for their comfort The world says "too much" I say that's the right amount Too loud, too proud Too real to ever hush down [Pre-Chorus] They get scared and call it your fault They don't stay long enough To see what's behind that wall To see what's soft in you [Chorus] I love you for you For all of you The fire, the pride The parts you hide I see all of you I'm not going anywhere No one takes your spot You loved me like that too I love you for you I love you for you [Verse 2] You hate the gays, yeah, right And somehow I'm your best friend You'll hip-check the whole damn world When it comes for me again You drove to me with nothing Then gave me everything Birthday lights, Fourth of July Ren faire crowns, the kid I never got to be You showed up at my lowest Like it was nothing at all Bought the tickets, made the ride Caught me when I almost fell We joke like it's forever But I mean every word No one takes your chair No one takes my seat [Pre-Chorus] They get scared and call it your fault They don't stay long enough To see what's behind that wall To see what's soft in you [Chorus] I love you for you For all of you The fire, the pride The parts you hide I see all of you I'm not going anywhere No one takes your spot You loved me like that too I love you for you I love you for you [Bridge] You call me a genius Can't hear your own light You think you're too tall Too loud, too much tonight But I want all of it Every inch you throw around We carry the same wound You wear it like a crown I wear mine like doubt You wear yours like fire You let only a few get close And I'm one of the quiet few You sing me back together The voice they told you to quiet down I'm not shaken by you I get brighter, Love Love I see you [Final Chorus] I love you for you For every loud part Every unshrinking Irreplaceable inch I see all of you I'm not going anywhere No one takes your spot No one takes your spot I love you for you I love you for you [Outro] I love you for you, Love Love I love you for you, Love Love
