Numbers

Why do I stay victim to a system
Makes me feel number
Why do I stay victim to a system
Treats me as a number

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Born and raised in South East Asia
Mathematics was my Major
Focused like a laser
Nothing could a fazed her
She an overachiever
They told her receive her
Diploma you know the
Expensive piece of paper
Defined by the letter on tests, exams and my papers
Higher the better, sooner or later
I realized I'm greater than numbers from my graders
If perfection is the goal then why the heck invent erasers

Why do I stay victim to a system
Makes me feel number
(I am more than a number)
Why do I stay victim to a system
Treats me as a number
(We are more than a number)

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Counting calories like every single day
Slowly starve our days away to stay in shape
Why argue with what the media has to say
Wash our brains from their brainwash start today
Self worth defined by our waistline
More value in a dress size
Wanna squeeze in dat zero
Anorexics our heroes
Young girls wanna be something
But zero is the epitome of nothing
Of nothing

Why do I stay victim to a system
Makes me feel number
(I am more than a number)
Why do I stay victim to a system
Treats me as a number
(We are more than a number)

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Why do I stay victim to a system
Makes me feel number
(I am more than a number)
Why do I stay victim to a system
Treats me as a number
(We are more than a number)

Why do I stay victim to a system
Makes me feel number
(I am more than a number)
Why do I stay victim to a system
Treats me as a number
(We are more than a number)

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers

Feeling numb cause of numbers
Feeling numb cause of numbers
Numbers let it numb her
Feeling numb cause of numbers
