Princess - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

We've all been told when we were little

We could grow up and live a fairy tale

But no one ever bothered telling us that

The storybook ending never started out well

Why's there always gotta be a hero?

What if Cinderella had to save herself?

It's not like we don't need a little help

But maybe it's a good thing to go through a little hell

[Interlude]

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]

Now I'm laying in bed tonight

With my best friend sleeping on my couch

She got kicked out of her house 'cause she finally came out

And all the riches in the kingdom won't fix that

[Pre-Chorus]

We'll walk through fire and ice

Come out the other side with diamonds in our eyes

[Chorus]

So, princess, hold your head high

Even if you have to cry

Don't let your crown fall

Your script is in the making

You can hold the aching but

Don't let your crown fall

Don't let your crown fall down

[Post-Chorus]

We've been dreaming the good life

While we're living the real life

We've been dreaming the good life

While we're living the real life

[Verse 3]

Supermodels lighten up the billboards

And telling her to live like she's on the runway

She doesn't know she's not the only one having a hard time

Liven up, there's something some day

So keep your Chanel but it's not gonna be enough

And even looking like Giselle won't cover up the bruises

So wear your scars proud, we're screaming loud

Stop the abusing

[Pre-Chorus]

We'll walk through fire and ice

Come out the other side with diamonds in our eyes

[Chorus]

So, princess, hold your head high

Even if you have to cry

Don't let your crown fall

Your script is in the making

You can hold the aching but

Don't let your crown fall

Don't let your crown fall down

[Bridge]

Little girls always grow older

Your story is a long way from over

We're lost before we're found

Gotta be weak to get stronger

Learn how to breathe underwater

This is our battleground

[Verse 4]

All the houses are quiet and the fences are white

The status and the pictures that they post are blind

But we're all going through it, so why do we do it?

Why do we hide?

[Chorus]

So, princess, hold your head high

Even if you have to cry

Don't let your crown fall

Your script is in the making

You can hold the aching but

Don't let your crown fall

Don't let your crown fall down

[Post-Chorus]

Little girls always grow older

Your story is a long way from over

We're lost before we're found

Gotta be weak to get stronger

Learn how to breathe underwater

This is our battleground

[Outro]

Why's there always gotta be a hero?

What if Cinderella had to save herself?
