Impostor Syndrome

Spent my life trying to pass for normal
In a world that runs on synthetic morals
Without a role model to get me ready,
Blazed the trail myself with a dull machete
The hood to motherhood I've tried it all
When will I settle down? I can't decide at all
Don't even have to try to be a hellion
I just be myself, they tell me that's rebellion

They take me aside
And whisper in my ear
"Let me clarify
Just how things are done around here"

I know I'm doing it wrong
You don't have to tell me I'm doing it wrong, I know
I'm doing it wrong, yeah I know
You don't have to tell me
'Cause I
Know I'm doing it wrong
You don't have to tell me I'm doing it wrong, I know
I'm doing it wrong, yeah I know
You don't have to tell me

Living humble's how I got my grit
Sweeping parking lots on the graveyard shift
Then I went looking for a pedigree
Learning useless crap at university
I moved to Hollywood for movie roles
Still get two-dollar checks from those residuals
So please remember when you think I'm dumb
Asking me where's that cute hillbilly accent from

I easily cry
And I'm more than meets the eye
I'll try not to judge you
Without walking in your shoes
Can you do the same for me?

Say what you will, Expressions don't lie
And it's clear to me each time I look in your eye
You're thinking
That girl's not one of us and it's true
Either she's on drugs or maybe she needs drugs,
One of the two (you're doing it wrong!)
I know

I know I'm doing it wrong
You don't have to tell me I'm doing it wrong, I know
I'm doing it wrong, yeah I know
You don't have to tell me
'Cause I
Know I'm doing it wrong
You don't have to tell me I'm doing it wrong, I know
I'm doing it wrong, yeah I know
You don't have to tell me
'Cause I know
Yeah I know
I'm doing it wrong
