Текст песни
They found me crying in the bathroom stall at thirteen
Didn't ask what's wrong, just said "fix your face, stop being mean"
Went back to class like nothing happened, like I didn't just break
Teachers saw the bruises, never asked, big mistake
Honor roll but couldn't focus, brain too loud, too fast
Too much noise inside my head, wondering how long this would last
Friends? What friends? The ones who laughed when I walked past
The ones who took my lunch money, made my life a contrast
To the girls on TV, the ones with perfect hair and skin
I wore the same jeans for a week, they noticed, let the jokes begin
You don't know what it's like in my glass house
Everybody watching, waiting for me to break down
Throwing stones but acting like they care now
You don't know, you don't know
Walking on eggshells in my own skin
Trying to be perfect but the cracks begin
One day I'll show them who I've always been
You don't know, you don't know
Graduation came and went, nobody clapped for me
Sat alone in the back row, that's my memory
Moved to the city with two hundred dollars and a dream
Found a studio that let me record in exchange for cleaning the machines
Bought a notepad, started writing everything I couldn't say
All the pain from yesterday, all the fears I pushed away
First track was about my bullies, second about the shame
Third about the voice inside that told me I was just a name
Labels passed, said I'm too real, too raw, too street
Too feminine, too masculine, too incomplete
So I stayed independent, built my name brick by brick
Every no just made me hungrier, every closed door made me sick
With determination, I'm a woman in a man's game
They don't know my name yet, but they will, watch the flames
You don't know what it's like in my glass house
Everybody watching, waiting for me to break down
Throwing stones but acting like they care now
You don't know, you don't know
Walking on eggshells in my own skin
Trying to be perfect but the cracks begin
One day I'll show them who I've always been
You don't know, you don't know
Fast forward, now they booking me for shows
Same girls who ignored me asking "how'd it go?"
Same teachers who dismissed me wanting interviews
Funny how success changes the point of view
But I don't owe them nothing, not a verse, not a line
I'm here for the ones who never had a chance to shine
The girls in bathroom stalls, the ones who eat alone
The ones who talk to mirrors 'cause they're scared to be known
I see you, I was you, I am you, still am
Just with a platform now and a slightly different plan
To tell the truth even when it hurts, especially when it hurts
To wear my scars like jewelry, to walk through the dirt
And come out clean, or at least cleaner than before
This is for the ones still fighting, this is your encore
They ask me how I made it, I say "I just survived"
Every day above ground is a win, I'm still alive
Still writing, still fighting, still spitting through the pain
Still standing in the sun after years of only rain
You don't know what it's like in my glass house
Everybody watching, waiting for me to break down
Throwing stones but acting like they care now
You don't know, you don't know
Walking on eggshells in my own skin
Trying to be perfect but the cracks begin
One day I'll show them who I've always been
You don't know, you don't know
So throw your stones
I'm not breaking
I'm just waking
Watch me rise
Watch me rise
