My friends say I'm perfect, But they don't know what’s behind the grades The “pretty”, “hardworking”, “talented” me, A lot more is going inside then what you see
No one except God knows who I truly am, Well, I’ll tell you who I am I'm a girl who wants to be wild and crazy like a normal kid, But can't because I'm expected to be a perfect little kid
I remember when I used to be an outgoing girl, But for now I hide in my she’ll I used to like hang out with friends, But soon, that had to end
“Your cousins got straight A1s for their exams”, “Your cousins got perfect scores for their A levels” My other family members raised the bars of expectations, Little did I know, that had to be my expectations too
I wonder how long more I can keep up with this pace, With all the pressure around me surface I just want to live, humble and true, Lord please help me live my life for You
