Levity

From an infant age
I've always felt strange
Filling up my ribcage
Other people's pain
Always play it safe
That's what mami say
Hold your expectations
Horses in the gate

Lately it seems
The world's current theme
More like a horror film
Am I the next girl that's getting killed
When I go to sleep?
Well I have a dream
Where you and me, we get to be

Cool and carefree
Like we used to be
Rockin' my little t's
Every version of me
Worth celebrating

Pop my bubbly
Ok fine it's Hennessey
Ain't think I'd see 23
Every version of me
Worth celebrating

Can't find the answers
If I can't form the questions
Miss my Tía Ceci's candor
It gave me direction

Can't turn to my dad 'cause he
'Bout his money
Can't look to my mama
She acting funny
We barely spoke all of 2020
Too much weight on my shoulders already heavy
You could keep that, yeah

Anxiety and sertraline and
Losing me and losing sleep and
Being mean to me
That's my daily routine
That's not how it should be
I'd rather feel a little levity

Cool and carefree
Like we used to be
Rockin' my little t's
Every version of me
Worth celebrating

Pop my bubbly
Ok fine it's Hennessey
Ain't think I'd see 23
Every version of me
Worth celebrating
Celebrating me

I'm worth it, said
I'm worth it, yeah
