"EXPECTATIONS." lyrics

I'll tell you a little something that I know
People change and people grow
The past of me's unraveling, I'm happy to let it go
Half of me is here to stay
Half of me is going away
But all of me feels all these things
I'm constantly amazed, I wanna know

Do I fit the mold that you've made up in your head?
Am I living up to expectations?
And do the words I say align with your narrative?
I cannot live up to your expectations

Well you say that I changed, I say damn right
Can you blame me for living my damn life
What I became's a result of some hard times
Blended with beauty and blessed by the divine
All of the words that you like that I did write
Over ten years ago, man, that's a long time
I think improving myself is my own right
And so I refuse to remain in the same light

Do I fit the mold that you've made up in your head?
Am I living up to expectations?
And do the words I say align with your narrative?
I cannot live up to your expectations of me no more

Said I wanna break free when I break through
Bloom like the flowers do
Go where the sky are blue
Be true, be you
Be something new

Break free when I break through
Bloom like the flowers do
Go where the sky are blue
Be true, be you
Be something new

Do I fit the mold that you've made up in your head?
Am I living up to expectations?
And do the words I say align with your narrative?
I cannot live up to your expectations of me
Expectations
