Yeah maybe I should've started in a lower key
But then you wouldn't have even noticed me
I can be whoever you want me to be
I could be him, I could her
Why can't I just be me?

You can hate all you want but you never get to me
It all goes through me
I'll do just what I please
Criticism for the soul
And I'll just grow
You thought you've brought me to my knees

I guess it's time I started writing the obituaries
Goodbye envy, goodbye sorrow
You were legendary
There's no time for being shy
When we're acting silly
Goodbye bad times, hello Lilly

Yeah maybe I should've made a better first impression
But dwelling on the past is for the weak
And other men and women, they will try to drag you out
Don't try to scream, just try to speak

You can hate all you want when you have no name
It's all the same
Just try to rise above the noise
Criticism close to heart
Right from the start
But I just wanna hear your voice
I guess it's time I started writing the obituaries
Goodbye envy, goodbye sorrow
You were legendary
There's no time for being shy
We're acting silly
Goodbye bad times, hello Lilly
