Ellie Allen - Pretender

I have never been good
At conforming to the culture
And that's what you seem to want, boy
Got your own little bitty thing
To do the things you want, boy
Like I'm a damn toy
And it might be cause I'm bored
Or I got too used to your company
But you're asking too much
For things that I know I will never be
Still, I can't give you up
Cause you're a habit I let stick to me
Now you're too close and I'm too deep
So I'm a pretender
I'm everything you need
A pretender
I'm what you thought I'd be
A pretender
I could be your little wifey
When really I'm too spicy
But right now I'm just gonna pretend end
Right now I'm just gonna pretend end
Little damage until you turn around
And see it's not me
But that's not happening
Cause
You got your blinders on a mission
Only see what you wanna see
I guess I'm pretty
Nice for a girl that's bad
If you want to be now you have
Seen what you saw that what I lack
Your insecurities covered that
Think what you want and call me sad
Loving a man who acts like that
Just temporary what I said
So I'm a pretender
I'm everything you need
A pretender
I'm what you thought I'd be
A pretender
I could be your little wifey
When really I'm too spicy
But right now I'm just gonna pretend end
Right now I'm just gonna pretend end
Oh
Call me crazy
Call my bluff
But you don't know me enough
Always said you were the one
Must be tripping on some lust, shit
Acting like you own me
Wanting to control me
Thinking that I'm something that I'm not
Because you want the
Image that I give off to the world around me
Surface level, content loading sack of bullshit
But who am I don't argue with the image
When the fact that I want you is too contradicting
To determine a victim
When we're both pawns in the game
Of loving being loved
Honey, really we're the same
I'm a pretender
I'm everything you need
A pretender
I'm what you thought I'd be
A pretender
I could be your little wifey
When really I'm too spicy
But right now I'm just gonna pretend
