Uncomfortable by Alexa Esperanza Lyrics

Verse 1:
I wanted you to want me
So so bad
But u wouldn't have me
The way that I am

So I tried
To dim my light
I did myself wrong
So you could be right

But it’s time
This ends

Chorus:
I can't keep on playin' myself by your rules
I can’t keep on shrinking myself
Just cuz my greatness
Makes you uncomfortable

Verse 2:
Wanted you to believe that
I was a certain way
So I chose with caution
The words that I'd say
So l lied
I tried to hide
And act like an exception
To a stereotype

But It's time
This ends

Vamp:
Cuz my mind (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my hair (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my style (makes you uncomfortable)

Cuz my skin (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my body (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my love for myself and my sistas (makes you uncomfortable)

Cuz my joy (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my anger (makes you uncomfortable)
This catharsis (makes you uncomfortable)

Cuz my power (makes you uncomfortable)
Cuz my magic (makes you uncomfortable)
This catharsis (makes you uncomfortable)

Chorus:
I can't keep on playing myself by your rules
I won't keep on shrinking myself because my greatness makes you
Uncomfortable x3
‘Cause it makes you
Uncomfortable x3
I don't care if it makes you
Uncomfortable x3
Go ahead and be
Uncomfortable x3
