Not Your Baby

Verse 1

Shoes tied

Knotted tight

Watch me walk alone tonight

I can navigate the train lines

Hand off

Back away

I am not a kitten in a cage

I know the rules

I know the signs

Chorus

I am twelve not tiny

Twelve not tiny

Muzukashiku nai yo

I can handle it

I can manage it

Hanashite yo

Let me go

Let me go

Verse 2

Don't stare

Heavy sigh

Looking down from way up high

I see the trap

I see the trick

Stranger

Danger

Keep my distance like a ranger

Don't need a map

Don't need a lecture

Sick of the sweetness

Sick of the safety

Sick of the shadows

Stop the baby talk

Watch the way I walk

Chorus

I am twelve not tiny

Twelve not tiny

Muzukashiku nai yo

I can handle it

I can manage it

Hanashite yo

Let me go

Let me go

Bridge

Maybe I look small

Maybe I look young

Mada kodomo ja nai

Listen to my tongue

Listen to my words

Listen to my voice

I make the choice

I make the choice

Chorus

I am twelve not tiny

Twelve not tiny

Muzukashiku nai yo

I can handle it

I can manage it

Hanashite yo

Let me go

Let me go

Outro

I got this

Hitori de dekiru

I got this

Leave me be

Just leave me be
