Fine Print

Verse 1 They said I’d shine, just play the part, Smile on cue, don’t show the scars. They dressed me up in fancy clothes, Built a lie the whole world knows. Pre-Chorus 1 I signed my name, didn’t read it through, Didn’t know what they planned to do. Chorus It’s right there in the fine print, All the lines I never meant. They own my face, they sell my name, Turn my quiet into fame. The deal was done, I disappeared — Guess that’s the price for being here. No redo, no rewind, Lost in the fine print and left behind. Verse 2 They made my hurt a headline too, Told the world their point of view. Every word I didn’t say Built their empire anyway. Pre-Chorus 2 I learned to smile on demand, While they cashed in every brand. Chorus It’s right there in the fine print, All the lines I never meant. They own my name, they sell my pain, Dress it up and call it gain. The deal was done, I disappeared — Guess that’s the price for being here. No redo, no rewind, Lost in the fine print and left behind. Bridge I call it scars, they say it’s art, I told the truth, they trimmed the scene. It’s in the fine print on the page, I signed my name, I took the stage. They owned my voice, they sold my pain, Then wrapped it up and called it fame. When the deal was done, they threw me away — A mixtape gets no rewind. Lost in the fine print and left behind.
