⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ɪɴᴛʀᴏᴅᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴ ♟❃] if you don't already know me, you can call me eva! i'm a 16 year old singer/songwriter. this is track 9 of my original album, єffσятℓєѕѕ. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ᴍᴇssᴀɢᴇ ♟❃ ] my fav song off of effortless. this is about the same guy i’ve written basically all my older songs on (including when will i be over you which was originally released 3 years ago). the lyrics in the verse reference how he found out about 2 of the songs I wrote about him. I think it was reputation and you’ll see! we used to be super close & really good friends, and were basically dating. but we grew apart after I left our friend group. the other people were super toxic, and in distancing myself from them, I also kinda ghosted him. part of the lyrics expresses regret for not keeping in touch with him. but i was also able to find myself again and flourish on my own. whereas with him he was a bit controlling. this year, my friends tried setting us up for prom but he didn’t want to go with me. the chorus talks about the tendency for him to only be attracted to me when i was less accomplished than him but as soon as I became “successful” he didn’t want me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ʟʏʀɪᴄꜱ ♟ ❃] VERSE 1 oh my biggest regret is pushing you away it's scary how much in three years you can change but it's consistent the truth unwavered at gunpoint I felt so terrible about those songs I bet you listen to them all day long when you found out, I almost hit delete glad I didn't CHORUS does it hurt your ego that I made it (somewhere big and better) would you take me back if I submitted? (the application to patriarchy) did my brilliance become burdensome (oh baby did I hurt you?) once it ceased to serve your selfish gaze? VERSE 2 if you hurt me expect an album full of rants oh wait I've been skimming by each one they're all about you, God how can you move on? not my deal I know my ascent emasculates you I stopped blaming myself for all you put me through I thought you're sorry no you just want to be absolved CHORUS does it hurt your ego that I made it (somewhere big and better) would you take me back if I submitted? (the application to patriarchy) did my brilliance become burdensome (oh baby did I hurt you?) once it ceased to serve your selfish gaze? OUTRO I bought myself a bouquet for the prom I'll shove it in your face, see how you like it ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ᴄʀᴇᴅɪᴛꜱ ♟❃ ] i made all the melodies, harmonies, background vocals, and lyrics! producing credits go to y2be ᝰ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ʟɪɴᴋꜱ ♟❃ ] youtube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL42JJ4zjHdflgbt53eSbwq8RNAiL4eiP5&si=7Zlfz8C4q0TVK7R3 youtube music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL42JJ4zjHdflgbt53eSbwq8RNAiL4eiP5&si=NO-xAV1sV2MrulPo scratch studio: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀[ ❃♟ ᴛᴀɢꜱ ♟❃ ]
