take what i can get Lyrics

take what i can get - Alto Key

...

Changing my body for people around me

Maybe they'll say "I'm great"

It's a toxic perspective that might be subjective

At least they'll know my name

Mum said "it's a lost cause to go to the stars"

"'Cause the ground is fine"

"Sure it looks brighter but just be realistic"

"You're already twenty nine"

So I'll move to the city

Lie about my age

Make some friends

That don't even know name

And I'm feeling lonely again

'Cause they come and go like a trend

So I'll lower my hairline

I'll lose some weight

Get a doctor to fix

Everything out of place

And I'll lose myself in the end

But I'll take what I can get

Last day of school, I said "I'd do it all"

Just wanted to be seen in the room

Now I'm back in my hometown, the silence is so loud

So what was I trying to prove?

Hiding my emotions from familiar faces, it hurts when they say

"Congratulations you made it, you've changed for the better"

'Cause it doesn't feel that way

So I'll move to the city

Lie about my age

Make some friends

That don't even know my name

And I'm feeling lonely again

'Cause they come and go like a trend

So I'll lower my hairline

I'll lose some weight

Get a doctor to fix

Everything out of place

And I'll lose myself in the end

But I'll take what I can get

Oh I'll take what I can get

I'll take what I can get
