In your chair where the giants play God pretending you are something more Than just kids that went and Got big enough to leave the front door There's no school in being powerful Or how to grow to from conflict What is expected when I am directed To never truly see myself? Keep it in, keep it in boy (Don't let it out) Just smile, just smile now (Stay sweet, stay small) Keep it in, keep it in boy (Don't let it out) Just smile, just smile now (Stay sweet, stay small) It's just words but they can dig deep Until they're underneath the skin All I am scared of. All I am was formed Inside this frame of time You're all small and vulnerable So why are you pretending to be wise and tall? What is expected when I am directed to never truly see myself? Keep it in, keep it in boy (Don't let it out) Just smile, just smile now (Stay sweet, stay small) Keep it in, keep it in boy (Don't let it out) Just smile, just smile now (Stay sweet, stay small) I know I cannot shake the words That made me fear these parts of me The parts that once were shamed I've learned to trust again But what you've said lives in my head Let it out, let it out always, Don't just keep it in (Keep it in, keep it in boy, Don't let it out) Be strong. Be weak. Be you. I'm not built by these words (Just smile, just smile now, Stay sweet, stay small) Let it out, let it out always, Don't just keep it in (Keep it in, keep it in boy, Don't let it out) Be strong. Be weak. Be you. (Just smile, just smile now)
