Girl I've become, girl I've become
Girl I've become, girl I've become
Let me ask you first, what did you think when you saw me?
Was I something that you wanted?
Or only just another cure for lonely?
Another you don't plan on catching after throwing?
Spent a lot of time, fixing my heart
Gathering my peace of mind
And I worked so goddamn hard
Now I love the girl I've become
Now I love the girl I've become
Oh no no no, I finally know the wrong that was done
Finally know the wrong that was done
And I deserve better, better, better
I deserve better, yeah yeah
I deserve better, better, better
I deserve better
Now let me get this straight
Said you had ideas for us, wanted to travel the world
And provide a shield for all of the crazy things
That come with this game we play
All the shit that the people say is
They don't know how we live, they don't know how we love
You said it so well can't believe I was so dumb
But all I'm tryna say is I'm not crazy
I finally know my self worth baby
