Chris Crocker - 2007 lyrics

You don't gotta be a pop star to know it's hard You can watch from afar and see a breaking heart That damn spotlight will s** you dry All the parasites and all their lies Y'all saw a robot I saw a lost girl So I stood up and told the world Back in 2007 That's when I picked up my camera And I told 'em, told 'em Told 'em to leave you alone 'Cause I didn't wanna see you fall That's when I bared my mascara And that's when I told America To leave you alone 'Cause I didn't wanna see you fall You don't gotta be a feminist like me to see She was torn down for being free People wonder if I was serious The same year of my mom's addiction Y'all saw a robot I saw a lost girl So I stood up and told the world Back in 2007 That's when I picked up my camera And I told 'em, told 'em Told 'em to leave you alone 'Cause I didn't wanna see you fall That's when I bared my mascara And that's when I told America To leave you alone 40 million voices in my head I can't imagine what she felt 3 words and 8 years later No one can forget But I took a stand Yeah, I took a stand 'Cause I didn't wanna see you fall That's when I bared my mascara And that's when I told America To leave you alone 'Cause I didn't wanna see you fall
