Mickey Guyton - Words lyrics

[Verse 1] I’m not skinny enough I’m not pretty enough Feels like the world’s on my back They don’t like the songs that I sing And the man who gave me my ring May even hate that I’m Black [Pre-Chorus] It’s so much pressure feeling like I gotta smile and let it go To keep it all to myself and never let it show [Chorus] Yeah, I am strong but I still cry There’s still darkness in my light There’s some days I just can’t do it Oh, what can I say? I’m only human And there’s still lies in, in my truth Sometimes I ain’t bulletproof Sticks and stones will never break my bones But words still hurt me [Verse 2] Somеtimes they lift you up Just to pull you back down And they fill you with doubt Thеy can tear you apart Fix up your broken heart Pick you up off the ground [Pre-Chorus] It’s so much pressure feeling like I gotta smile and let it go To keep it all to myself and never let it show [Chorus] Yeah, I am strong but I still cry There’s still darkness in my light There’s some days I just can’t do it Oh, what can I say? I’m only human And there’s still lies in, in my truth Sometimes I ain’t bulletproof Sticks and stones will never break my bones But words still hurt me [Bridge] If we could love a little more Hate a little less, love a little more If we could love a little more, hate a little less If we could love a little more, love a little more, yeah [Chorus] Yeah, I am strong but I still cry There’s still darkness in my light There’s some days I just can’t do it Oh, what can I say? I’m only human And there’s still lies in, in my truth Sometimes I ain’t bulletproof Sticks and stones will never break my bones But words still hurt me Words still hurt me
