NONTOXIC

lyrics

I only wanted to be loved and seen but I don't go far to go find that now,
Trial by fire and I passed so well that I left intact, reinforced somehow,
Wanna be angry that I loved someone who lays hands on people they claim to know so well,
Caught in an era of disguises, carefully picked and chosen, burn the fabric and give them hell!!

I can be my friend, I'll be my hard drive, now hard-wired
with the love and laughter I was seeking out in someone else,
Once I stop pretending like I'm some outdated software
I corrode all the plastic, burn away and let it melt,

Turns out that the limitations I thought were encoded weren't real-
It was told to me through oh so many mouths,
Sad for everyone that all the upgrades that I wanted sat inside my core-
Install them while I'm looking hot as hell

I'll upgrade, come watch me,
Optimized, new clock speed,
New features, unlocked it,
Made with love, nontoxic

Brushing it off, cleaning the dust off my keys,
Ready for war, don't need the in-app fees,
So reinforced, I'm drop protected, well perfected,
Clear so you can see the insides, don't be fooled its well protected
I'm not a piece of tech just here to put your life at ease,
I run so many processes- would make your system seize,
My updater keeps running, keeping me alert and keen,
Not an emotional fleshlight, I am a well oiled machine.

Fuck off with that crap,
Now so outspoken
Back with a strap,
Thought I was broken?
Watch how you act,
Go save your tokens
New era, new me, tiptoe or I'll smash your skull in!!!

I won't play nice if you won't play fair, I can't accept that for my mental health,
See through your act, I took notes and memorized the ways that people act in stealth,
Good fucking luck, you can't silence me, I know my worth so I'll go scream and shout,
28 years I put the world before me, stepping up front, that's what it's all about,

I spent my life shrinking myself down so I would never ever be in the way,
Life of a doormat who reached a limit and decided to reclaim herself, taking up more space,
No longer fearful to speak up first and come in strong if someone comes along to spit in my face,
Ripping the tape off my mouth, I am the only one who knows just how to keep my heart safe,

I'll upgrade, come watch me,
Optimized, new clock speed,
New features, unlocked it
Made with love, nontoxic <3
