PERFECT Lyrics by Midnight Foxes

SOCIETY

2020

You know I’m just a soul inside a body
You're throwing shots at me like it’s a hobby
Everybody be going through the same long journey
And some got it worse than me
And I think about how lucky
That I am and even though you don’t understand
What it’s like to be me
Doesn't mean you gotta throw shade like an overgrown bully
You got it misunderstood
Just cause you can don’t mean you should
And I know I oughta and I could
But that don’t mean it’s a good
Decision and I know myself
And ever since I was twelve
Everybody be telling me
How much that they dislike
My own mind and how I try
To be what society
Wants me to be
But I can only be me
And that’s what they never see
They’re so blinded by their hypocrisy

Can’t break free
From society
Tell me what to wear
And how to breathe
Like you own me
Like I’m incorrect
You say I’m worthless
Unless I’m Perfect

Since the beginning of my life
Always subliminal in my mind
Always everywhere I go
It even follows me home
Just like a useless chaperone
Telling me it’s not polite to scream
And cry and feel my emotions
Telling me it’s not polite to be me
And that I should drown in an ocean
Tell me to K. Y. S
Like it’s not a threat
Tell me to put on more makeup
And tell me it’s too much
Tell me to dress nicely
Then tell me I’m too good to be seen
All these constantly
Can’t you feel the gravity
Of the situation that quite literally
Can make you want to scream
And never ever again want to breathe

Can’t break free
From society
Tell me what to wear
And how to breathe
Like you own me
Like I’m incorrect
You say I’m worthless
Unless I’m Perfect

So this is how it’s gonna go
Always throwing cheap shots so low
And I know that you know
You could change it if you really wanted to
You could change it if you really wanted to

So this is how it’s gonna go
Always throwing cheap shots so low
And I know that you know
You could change it if you really wanted to
We could change it if we really wanted to

Can’t break free
From society
Tell me what to wear
And how to breathe
Like you own me
Like I’m incorrect
You say I’m worthless
Unless I’m Perfect

Can’t you see
What’s going on
Where we went wrong
Why sing along
When the sunrise
Will illuminate
All of these lies
And they will dissipate
Only then can we communicate
And learn to how to appreciate
