[INTRO] Okay, look cool. No, not that cool. Why do I look like I’m waiting at the dentist? [VERSE 1] Ring light on, camera up Trying to act like I don’t care too much One little pose, then I freeze Why do I suddenly have elbows and knees? Hair looks good, outfit hits Confidence loaded for two whole clips Then I made eye contact with my phone And forgot how to stand alone [PRE-CHORUS] I had the fit, I had the glow Practiced in the mirror like I run the show But the second that the lens goes live My cool little soul tries to hide Trying to serve, trying to slay But I look scared in a stylish way Heart says “icon,” face says “run” Somehow I still look kinda fun [CHORUS] I’m trying to be main character But I’m buffering on screen Tried to look like midnight danger Ended up a nervous meme I’m all bite in the caption All blush in real life I can act like I’m a problem Till somebody says “hi” I’m trying to be main character But my confidence is shy So I post it, then I panic When the numbers start to climb [POST-CHORUS] Main character loading Wait, no, I’m folding Hot girl energy With awkward controlling Main character loading Too late, it’s posted Everybody saw it Now I gotta own it [VERSE 2 - RAP] One, two, pose, wait, no Why’d I move like an NPC though? Turn to the side, dramatic stare Tripped on nothing, fought the air Drafts on drafts, I got forty-three Half say “cute,” half say “delete” Tried to look smooth with a hair flip trick Hit my own face, that’s cinematic Not a flirt, I’m a jump scare Cute little menace with panic in the air Trying to be cool for the scroll and the feed But I keep saying sorry when nobody can see [PRE-CHORUS 2] I had the boots, I had the chain Had the perfect little villain frame But the second that the beat dropped low I forgot where my hands should go Trying to serve, trying to slay But I look lost in a fashionable way Heart says “legend,” nerves say “no” Still got likes, so here we go [CHORUS] I’m trying to be main character But I’m buffering on screen Tried to look like midnight danger Ended up a nervous meme I’m all bite in the caption All blush in real life I can act like I’m a problem Till somebody says “hi” I’m trying to be main character But my confidence is shy So I post it, then I panic When the numbers start to climb [BREAKDOWN] For the timeline, for the feed For the people yelling “queen” I was trying to look fearless Now I’m hiding offscreen For the comments, for the hype For the “wait, you kinda ate” I was aiming for mysterious But I served mistake [BRIDGE] Maybe I’m not smooth Maybe I’m not slick Maybe every little pose Turns into a comedy bit But they’re still watching So maybe I win Awkward little icon With a nervous little grin [FINAL CHORUS] I’m trying to be main character But I’m buffering on screen Tried to look like midnight danger Ended up a nervous meme I’m all bite in the caption All blush in real life I can act like I’m a problem Till somebody says “hi” I’m trying to be main character Now it’s somehow doing fine Guess I served accidental chaos With a shy little shine [OUTRO] Delete it? No. Own it. Wait— Why did that actually work?
