I want people to stare at me as I walk by Bow down to me Kiss my feet But they don't because I am just me I want people to put flowers in my hair Hold my hand Lift up my soul But they don't because I am just me I want to be treated like a goddess Dress me in white Red on my lips But I only look like one because I am just me I want someone to look me in the eyes And tell me I am their god But I can't even look them in the eyes I want to live upon my people They are the butterflies I lay around and watch them The garden is my home In the garden no one kisses my feet Or holds my hand Rather I am surrounded by friends We are each other's goddesses The flowers admire me They sit in my hair The butterflies kiss me And stain my lips red

I want people to stare at me as I walk by Bow down to me Kiss my feet But they don't because I am just me I want people to put flowers in my hair Hold my hand Lift up my soul But they don't because I am just me I want to be treated like a goddess Dress me in white Red on my lips But I only look like one because I am just me I want someone to look me in the eyes And tell me I am their god But I can't even look them in the eyes I want to live upon my people They are the butterflies I lay around and watch them The garden is my home In the garden no one kisses my feet Or holds my hand Rather I am surrounded by friends We are each other's goddesses The flowers admire me They sit in my hair The butterflies kiss me And stain my lips red
