When did I become your public property?
I was only tryna drink my morning coffee
When did you assume that I liked the ice on me?
And I disappeared from the earth and now I really see
People have it worse than me and I shouldn't be complaining
But the recognition of my face has really got me hating
Climbing up the ladder, but she shoot me 'cause I'm rising
And you don't see the high with you and the human that's been dying
But I'll show you the good in the bad (the good in the bad)
The best damn thing that we ever had (we ever had)
And the saddest thing that makes me really mad
And it makes me, makes me, makes me
Blame it on society (blame it on society)
Stay the hell away from me (stay the hell away from me)
Society (blame it on society)
Stop telling me what I'm supposed to be (what I'm supposed to be)
Ooh
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
See the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree
And what was meant to be was always meant to be
And you need to be on the sidelines, not the center of the show
And home is where the heart was, so you really ought to know, mmm
That everything I did could not happen without you
Sometimes you got to take a second look at the view
The places we used to go, and the people we used to meet
Always, always gonna be beautiful memories to me
But I'll show you the good in the bad (the good in the bad)
And the best damn thing that we ever had (we ever had)
And the saddest thing that makes me really mad
And it makes me, makes me, makes me
Blame it on society (blame it on society)
Stay the hell away from me (stay the hell away from me)
Society (blame it on society)
Stop telling me what I'm supposed to be (what I'm supposed to be)
Ooh
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
I'm only tryna be me, baby, baby
