Who has the guts to tell her
Her therapist can't make her younger
To run the treadmill of integrity
Who has the guts to tell her
She's too old for childish wonders
"You wanna get better? Get therapy"
Who has the guts to tell her
She'll always be someone older
With no notable attached conquests
Who has the guts to tell her
Her world can't be filed in folders
And performed at her utmost behest
Who's gonna tell her
Age is just a number
"I bet mine should be much lower," she said.
Scrolling through pictures
Medals of silver
How they lifted up their pressures off their chest
Skimming through yearbooks
Aesthetic thin looks
Never would've pulled off what they could do instead
"How did they do it?
Oh, what's their secret?
Someone tell me, I'm spiraling in my bed
My mind is a Russian Roulette
I wish I was wiser
And I wish I was like her
A blooming babe
While I'll always stay this way".
Who has the guts to tell her
Her date of birth doesn't matter
Would she come to her senses either way?
Who has the guts to tell her
"God forbid, wipe your windshields clearer
You own your presents and yesterdays"
Who has the guts to tell her
There are kids who are just smarter
But it shouldn't have to be a hard detour
Who has the guts to tell her
She's a sailor and a writer
There's still some islands left to explore
But I've been known to some to break down constraints
But the truth is, I break down when I don't conform
But I had opted to be a shoulder to cry on
But the truth is, I fall down and I spill out on the floor
'Cause who has got the guts to tell me
I'm not an anomaly
Who's gonna tell her she's brave?
For admitting she's scared she'd always stay that way
Despite her age
Who has the guts to tell me
"It's never too late"
Who has the guts to tell me,
"It'll be okay."
