DAìzy - Act Sweet Lyrics

They say "act sweet but be tough
Smile wide and don't be rough
Make-up on but don't try too much
Perfect body, yeah it's a must"

They say "be strong but not too bold
Grow up oh but don't look old
Inspire others but hide your face
Be yourself but know your place"

All these rules and these lists
They make you follow just to exist
Oh but no matter what they say
I know I'm perfect being me

But I did it their way
Never felt free
I was stuck in a place
That wasn't me
And I did it their way
Never felt free
Found my own light
Now I can see

They say "work hard but don't outshine
Be confident but stay in line
Express yourself, but calm down
Succeed big, don't wear the crown"

They say "look natural but don't be bland
Stay independent but need a man
Work out daily and show some ass
But be modest, please have some class"

All these rules and these lists
They make you follow just to exist
Oh but no matter what they say
I know I'm perfect being me

Oh act sweet (sweet, sweet)
But tough
Smile wide (wide, wide)
Don't be rough Work hard (hard, hard) Don't outshine
Be confident (dent, dent)
Stay in line

But I did it their way
Never felt free
I was stuck in a place
That wasn't me
Yeah I did it their way
Played their little game
I was lost in a maze
Oh, couldn't breathe

But I did it their way
Never felt free
I was stuck in a place
That wasn't me
Yeah I did it their way
Played their little game
I was lost in a maze
Oh, couldn't breathe

But I did it their way
Never felt free
I was stuck in a place
That wasn't me
And I did it their way
Never felt free
Found my own light
Now I can see
