Wild Me

[Verse]

They'll tell you to slow down

They'll teach you to smile and nod your head

That's a dangerous road, my friends

Nice girls are as good as dead (Ah!)

They just want a minute of your time

Just wanna steal your life

Take what they want and throw the rest aside

Isn't that right?

Yeah!

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm working on chewing through

Domestication to find my selfish truth

Separating the chaff from seed

And while the whole wide world's asleep, I'll be

[Chorus]

Unraveling the truth

Howling at the moon

Sharpening my teeth

Digging up the wild me

[Interlude]

We must recognize where we have failed each other, and reach together toward making this a more just world

We need healthcare and education, not racist, sexist, classist, or homophobic policies

As Audre Lorde once said, "I am not free while any woman is unfree, even if her shackles are very different from my own"

We will not back down

We must refuse to stay silent (Yeah!)

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm walkin' on two legs

But I'm an animal, fight and hunt and bleed

Dual nature, I've got two heads

Manicured fingers and bones inside my bed

[Chorus]

Unraveling the truth

Howling at the moon

Sharpening my teeth

I'm digging up the wild...

Digging up the wild...

Digging up the wild me
