"Positive Spin" lyrics

"Positive Spin"

Stretch marks on my thighs
So easy to spiral
Solely reading books by women
Preach them like the bible
I want to make a change
Be known as unique, fit the brief, make the grade all in a day
Got success on my mind
Mid-twenties are manic
Who'd have thought that it'd be trendy to suppress your panic?
I want to take control, to pick up the pace and hit the brakes all at once
Would somebody take this pressure off?

Isn't it strange how
Quickly you lose sight
Of where you saw yourself at one point in your life
Look at the big picture, take in the view
'Cause isn't this all that you set out to do?

So embrace a new era
Settled in your skin
Easily the coolest
That you've ever been
Embrace a new era
Yeah, sink your teeth in
See what you get out of putting a positive spin on it, on it

Won't stop until I've won
But keep moving the goalposts
So nothing that I've done feels good enough, but maybe almost
Well, I may never be Joni
But singing my truth's holy
And all the more inspiring
When seeking out the silver lining

Isn't it strange how
Quickly you lose sight
Of where you saw yourself at one point in your life
Look at the big picture, take in the view
You're doing it: all that you set out to do

Embrace a new era
Settled in your skin
Easily the coolest
That you've ever been
Embrace a new era
Yeah, sink your teeth in
See what you get out of putting a positive spin on it, on it

You pave the path you walk alone
(On it, on it)
No way to plan for what's unknown
(On it, on it)
Lessons you learn, where you went wrong
(On it, on it)
They're what you make lemonade from

(On it, on it)
You pave the path you walk alone
(On it, on it)
No way to plan for what's unknown
(On it, on it)
Lessons you learn, where you went wrong
(On it, on it)
They're what you make lemonade from

Embrace a new era
Settled in your skin
Easily the coolest
That you've ever been
Embrace a new era
Yeah, sink your teeth in
See what you get out of putting a positive spin on it, on it
