Gravity Never Loved Me

I’ve been drifting since the day I learned That some stars shine and some stars burn. They dressed me up in silver threads, Told me who to be, what life to tread. But I never fit the orbit they drew, Never spun right in their perfect view. So I cut the tether, let myself fall Didn’t know if I’d fly or lose it all. And every time I hit the dark, I swore I’d find my own damn spark. I’m not afraid of empty space It’s where I learned to take up place. ’Cause gravity never loved me, Never held me where I should be. I was born to break the pull, Born to run with pockets full Of every dream they said was wrong, Every truth I hid too long. If the world won’t let me be, Then I’ll be free ’Cause gravity never loved me. I’ve been the echo in a crowded room, The wild card kid they assumed Would settle down, fall into line But that life never felt like mine. I found a home in the noise and scars, In busted amps and dive‑bar bars. The Norsemen took me as I am No polish, no script, no master plan. And every time the lights went low, I felt a version of me grow. Not the daughter they designed But the one I fought so hard to find. ’Cause gravity never loved me, Never held me where I should be. I was born to break the pull, Born to run with pockets full Of every dream they said was wrong, Every truth I hid too long. If the world won’t let me be, Then I’ll be free ’Cause gravity never loved me. Maybe I’m a comet with a crooked tail, Maybe I’m a spark that was built to fail. But I’d rather burn out loud and bright Than fade in someone else’s light. So let the system spin without me I’ve got my own trajectory. ’Cause gravity never loved me, Never held me where I should be. I was born to break the pull, Born to run with pockets full Of every dream they said was wrong, Every truth I hid too long. If the stars don’t make me stay, I’ll carve my own celestial way. If the world won’t let me be, Then I’ll be free ’Cause gravity never loved me. And maybe that’s okay… I learned to love the drift anyway.
