This is a great first single choice, the second single has to be a bop in the vein of Get Right. A universal song that anyone can relate to about having a good time, but something not EDM based. Unless it's REALLY good and fresh.
I know everyones excited as am I and I don't mean to be a total buzzkill but from these clips it doesn't sound too fantastic. It sounds kind of like a whatever pseudo-hip-pop track similar to something she would've made maybe on Rebirth.
But I mean the fact that this first single is far from Brave or Live It Up and is in a Rebirth/This Is Me Then direction is promising to me but at the same time some of the songs on Rebirth were kind of bland so I was hoping for a little more Get Right/I, Love and a little less Step Into My World.
It’s killing me
I’m losing sleep
And I’m waking up tired (of it all)
3 in the morning
And it’s starting already
With my name always involved
I try to get rid of the baggage
Fake friends I call them ‘has-been’
Yeah they lying on stuff
And I don’t care if they don’t show me love (no)
So they want me to lie down
They want me to crawl
They want me to cry now
But I’ve never fallen off
Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me
Get off of me
Too damn grown, I don’t owe nobody
Get off of me
Get off of me
Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me
Get off of me
Too damn grown, I don’t owe nobody
Get off of me
Get off of me
Cuz in the end I’m still the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
I’m just the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Tell me what I gotta do
I’m tryna make it clear to you
Not dealing with the attitude
I’m tired of tryna make you see that I’m still me
So I check my longitude and latitude
You’re in my way, you better move
Knowing everyone is tryna bring me down
Ohh baby (ohh baby)
So they want me to lie down
They want me to crawl
They want me to cry now
But I’ve never fallen off
Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me
Get off of me
Too damn grown, I don’t owe nobody
Get off of me
Get off of me
Why you tryna put the world up on my shoulders?
Get off of me
Get off of me
Too damn grown, I don’t owe nobody
Get off of me
Get off of me
Cuz in the end I’m still the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
I’m just the same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
Same girl (same girl)
This is DEF a song Chris originally wrote for himself
Even though the song is similar to her other song JFTB, I love how the lyrics are different than JFTBs. Something different and powerful lyrics for sure. Same for the music video. It looks HYD-ish but I have a feeling it will end up with something unexpected.
