Hey World

Hey world, it's me
(Yeah, yeah, oh)
Hey world, it's me
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Hey world, it's me
(Yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh)

I better introduce myself
My name's Delilah and I'm not like anybody else
When I was small, I was gifted with a passion or two
Always making kids laugh, got suspended from school

And by the age of 14 staring up at the clouds
God, look at me now, I'm gonna be making you proud
I know you want me to try and put my time into school
But I've got real shit to do, why you on at me too?
It's like I, I feel exactly the same as me at 15
I have the same dream, the only difference is the shit I've seen

But all the bitchiness continues and thrives
But when you're making them angry, know you're doing it right
So eventually school when it ends
And all your friends they have kids, you never did
You're staring into the abyss
I only existed in my words and songs, so if you're looking for me, I'm here

Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Creating her reality
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world, it's me, it's me, it's me (hey world)

Always been the class clown
Now I do that shit in real life
Some people love me and some people die
Skip to the song with me, my darling
These futha-muckers are all so boring
All so boring? No, me not at all
Every day spent alone in the studio
Every day spent alone getting better
Try my best at the same time, it don't even seem to matter
'Cause this shit is rigged, this shit is faked

Dropped outta school, so I could really, really try to make a change
All the teachers said that I would never ever make
Make a living in music that I'm just deluded, I made it my mission
That they'll finally see
'Cause all these years, I've been ignored by this industry
And what the hell are they expecting me to do to please?
Well, they just sleep on my music, I scream in the darkness

Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Creating her reality
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world it's me, it's me, me (hey world)

It's me, the girl that you needed
I'm funny, pissed off, sad, weird
Sometimes I'm cursed by my childlike vision
In just a few weeks I'll be on television
I'm never included, didn't make the cut
Didn't fit the demographic, didn't tick the box
Wasn't what you wanted, got another in your lane
Two girls with dyed hair think we're really all the same?

I'm lyrically untouchable
I speak the truth and if you're offended by the reality
Every woman has to do to navigate this world
Like there's landmines in pavements
When girls play my music, I don't feel so helpless

Feels like I'm screaming at a wall
Acknowledge my existence I've been at it ten years
Just waiting for this moment to look the people who doubted me in the eye
And say I did it, I told you I could

Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Creating her reality
Hey world, it's me
Hey world, look at that girl
Look at who she's gonna be
Hey world it's me, it's me, it's me (hey world)

Me, me, me, me
It's me, it's all about me
Me, me, me, me
It's me, it's all about me
Me, me, me, me (it's all about me, it's all about me)
It's me, it's all about me
Me, me, me, me (it's all about me, it's all about me)
It's me, it's all about me
