What if I, what if I?
What if I, what if I?
You put me on a pedestal and tell me I'm the best
Raise me up into the sky until I'm short of breath, mm-mm
Fill me up with confidence, I say what's in my chest
Spill my words and tear me down until there's nothin' left
Rearrange the pieces just to fit me with the rest
But what if I, what if I trip?
What if I, what if I fall?
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know
And what if I, what if I sin?
And what if I, what if I break?
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know, mm-mm
I was fifteen when the world put me on a pŠµdestal
Big dreams of doin' shows and making memoriŠµs
Made some bad moves tryna act cool, upset by their jealousy
They're liftin' me up, liftin' me up
Had a chip on my shoulder, had to let it go
'Cause unforgiveness keeps them in control
I came in with good intentions, then I let it go
And now I really wanna know
What if I trip?
What if I, what if I fall? (What if I fall?)
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know
Yeah, what if I, what if I sin? (What if I sin?)
And what if I, what if I break? (What if I break?)
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know, yeah-yeah-yeah
La-da-da-da-da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da, da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da, da-da
What if I trip?
What if I, what if I fall?
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know
What if I, what if I sin? (What if I sin?)
And what if I, what if I break? (What if I break?)
Then am I the monster?
Just let me know, oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da-da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da, da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da (la-da-da-da-da-da)
La-da-da-da-da-da, da-da
