Takes

Lyrics

[verse]

You laughed the loudest when I dropped my tray

Made it your mission to ruin my day

Called it a joke but your smile turned it cruel

Guess it's the only trick you learned in school

[verse]

I used to shrink myself to fit in your box

Flinch at your words like they carried rocks

But every insult, I picked up and kept

Building a ladder while your patience I swept

[chorus]

Someday I'll be standing on a bigger stage

Living out loud past your little cage

And you'll still be stuck throwing your same old jabs

Bitter and small in the same old drab

While I fly higher than your words could ever reach

You'll be the lesson, I'll be the speech

[verse]

Small towns and small minds, you never can leave

You picked at my seams just to watch me grieve

But seeds don't stay buried, they push through the ground

I'm growing past every name that you throw around

[chorus]

Someday I'll be standing on a bigger stage

Living out loud past your little cage

And you'll still be stuck throwing your same old jabs

Bitter and small in the same old drab

While I fly higher than your words could ever reach

You'll be the lesson, I'll be the speech

[bridge]

Someday I'll look back and barely remember

The words you threw like a cold December

You'll be a footnote in a much brighter tale

I'm done letting your voice make me feel small and pale

[chorus]

Someday I'll be standing on a bigger stage

Living out loud past your little cage

And you'll still be stuck throwing your same old jabs

Bitter and small in the same old drab

While I fly higher than your words could ever reach

You'll be the lesson, I'll be the speech
