First Grade

(album: All 4 Nothing - 2022)

First grade, I see a girl alone in the world
Trying to paint in beautiful colors
With an innocent mother
And the story as it's told is not a pretty one
But it's still a story I wanna unfold

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you
That it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me

And I know you get discouraged sometimes
'Cause you're scared that your father was right
But I promise you'll see the things that I see in time
No way that there goes a day
When you get through the pain and all of the shit
You hold inside

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you
That it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you
That it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me
