Not Your Type

You say I’d look much better If I smiled more in your way If I wore what you like If I did what you say You call it “helpful advice” Like I asked for your review But I’m not a before-and-after Project built for you You want me quieter You want me sweet But I don’t fit inside Your neat little sheet I’m not your type I’m not your style I’m not your perfect little profile I talk too loud I stay up late I won’t adjust to what you tolerate You can keep your rules Keep your hype I’m not your type You say I’m kinda reckless ’Cause I speak what’s on my mind Like confidence in a girl Is a warning sign You try to label every move Like you’ve got me figured out But I don’t need your checklist To know what I’m about You want predictable Easy to read But I’m not built For you to lead I’m not your type I’m not your plan I’m not the girl who needs your hand I dye my hair I change my vibe I won’t apologize for being alive You can keep your rules Keep your hype I’m not your type I won’t shrink down To fit your frame I won’t rewrite My last name You want control You want a clone But I’m better off On my own I’m not your type Not your dream Not your version of “in between” Too much noise Too much fire Too independent for your desire You can keep your spotlight Keep your mic I’m not your type And I’m fine with that
