Expectations (Remix)

V5.5

(Bass only. Spoken.) You know what’s funny… Everyone has a plan… For your life. Except you. ⸻ [Verse 1] Be this. Not that. Speak up. Sit back. Dream big… Not too big. Fit in. Stand out. Make sense of that. ⸻ [Build] I got tired… Of carrying… A version of me… That belonged… To everybody else. ⸻ [Chorus] Fuck your expectations. I won’t wear them anymore. Fuck your expectations. They don’t fit… Who I am. I’m done apologising. Done explaining. Done shrinking… To make you comfortable. ⸻ [Instrumental] (Dirty bass groove. Vocal chops. No lyrics.) ⸻ [Verse 2] Every label… Every opinion. Every box… You built for me. I kicked the lid off… Now watch me breathe. ⸻ [Bridge] Maybe… I wasn’t lost. Maybe… I just stopped following… Someone else’s dream. ⸻ [Final Chorus] Fuck your expectations. I’ll write my own story. Fuck your expectations. This life… Is mine. No permission. No approval. No looking back. Only forward. (Final drop strips back to bass and a single vocal repeating: “Mine… mine… mine…”) [Outro] Fuck your expectations. I won’t wear them anymore. Fuck your expectations. They don’t fit… Who I am. I’m done apologising. Done fitting in. Done shrinking… Done being who I've been,. (music fades out)
