[Chorus — Bouncy R&B / Trap - soulful swag vocal] You don’t gotta be in NYC. You don’t gotta be in Dubai No rich dad, no VIP pass Still look good in that photograph From Bangkok nights to Tokyo lights From London rain to L.A. skies The baddest shit ain’t in a big city Baby, you’re the one, you’re the one, believe me Oh-oh, you’re the one Even when the whole world says you’re got none Oh-oh, you’re enough You don’t need a million followers just to be loved [Verse 1 — Playful half sing half rap half speak] No penthouse view, just a bedroom ceiling Headphones on, got a world worth dreaming Thrift-store jeans with the scissors cut Old-school shoes but the whole fit , slay! No famous last name, no family connection No blue tick waiting for your introduction No perfect jaw, no model-size waist Still got main-character energy, baby, just wait She got hand-me-downs, he got secondhand dreams Making whole new worlds on a cracked-up screen They got rich-kid parties, we got late-night talks They got front-row seats, we got midnight walks And honestly? What’s the difference, love? A different postcode ain’t a different kind of blood You don’t need their table, their approval, their throne Build a little universe and call it your own [Pre-Chorus — Soft Strings / Intimate Vocal] Maybe tonight, we don’t gotta run away Maybe our little town is the most beautiful place! They sell you the dream like you’re born too late But you were never a mistake You’re the best! [Chorus — Full Beat + Light Orchestra - Soulful and swag vocal ] You don’t gotta be in NYC. You don’t gotta be in Dubai No rich dad, no VIP pass Still look good in that photograph From Bangkok nights to Tokyo lights From London rain to L.A. skies The baddest shit ain’t in a big city Baby, you’re the one, you’re the one, believe me Oh-oh, you’re the one Even when the whole world says you’re got none Oh-oh, you’re enough You don’t need a million followers just to be loved [Verse 2 — Melodic singing/ Playful Flow] Paris got Eiffel ,Milan got fashion Seoul got the idols, Dubai got the mansions Hong Kong lights up, Sydney hits the coast But you don’t need a skyline just to shine the most From Rio to Rome, from Berlin to Taipei From a nowhere little town where the sky fills heaven You can dream in your accent, dance in your suburbs Write your own future with your own tune Some got connections, some got a trust fund Some got the world before they’ve even begun But privilege ain’t proof that you’re more than we are Beauty ain’t a checklist, perfect ain’t a prize You don’t need their standards to be somebody’s type And if they don’t see it, let ‘em miss the best shit The world ain’t the judge of the beautiful in you [Pre-Chorus — Soft Strings / Intimate Vocal] Maybe tonight, we don’t gotta run away Maybe our little town is the most beautiful place! They sell you the dream like you’re born too late But you were never a mistake You’re the best! [Chorus] You don’t gotta be in NYC. You don’t gotta be in Dubai No rich dad, no VIP pass Still look good in that photograph From Bangkok nights to Tokyo lights From London rain to L.A. skies The baddest shit ain’t in a big city Baby, you’re the one, you’re the one, believe me Oh-oh, you’re the one Even when the whole world says you’re got none Oh-oh, you’re enough You don’t need a million followers just to be loved [Bridge — Orchestra / Bedroom Pop Breakdown] You don’t need permission You don’t need admission You don’t need to fit their definition No matter where you come from You were always someone’s “someone” [Final Chorus — Big Harmonies / Warm Strings + Trap Drums] You don’t gotta be in NYC. You don’t gotta be in Dubai No rich dad, no VIP pass Still look good in that photograph From Bangkok nights to Tokyo lights From London rain to L.A. skies The baddest shit ain’t in a big city Baby, you’re the one, you’re the one, believe me Oh-oh, you’re the one Even when the whole world says you’re got none Oh-oh, you’re enough You don’t need a million followers just to be loved
