A Goddess of a Girl
You told me I couldn't
You told me I can't
I mean how could I dare
When the ideas you plant
The ideas you shove down
My pretty throat try to choke
To fill me up with
The negativity you invoke
Watch me and I come
Watch me as I see
Watch me as I conquer
Become what you couldn't be
Maybe this isn't as pretty
As watching the pink sun rise
Turning the world lilac
A softness that's a lie
But ask Atlas about the
Weight of the world
Which he carries on his
Shoulders, back bent and curled
I am not Atlas
But I carry the weight
Of a million girls who've
Had a worse fate
I do it for her
I do it for me
Getting out of bed is only
The beginning
I'll kiss the sky
And catch stars in my hair
And when I go to bed
The whole world will stare
Alexander won't seem so great
When you behold the world I create
