You stared straight through the space I occupy Like my outline never registered in your eye I spoke in full sentences you chose to mute Turned my presence into static you refuse to compute You drafted a version of me that fits your frame Then acted shocked when I wouldn't play the same I dislike being pigeonholed into a specific identity So keep your little labels they don't apply to me You made the room smaller every time I arrived Tried to edit me down until nothing survived You made me feel invisible Cut me out the picture like I never belonged You made me feel invisible Now the silence you built is the hook of this song You made me feel invisible Watch me take the space you swore I couldn't own You made me feel invisible But I'm still here and I'm not going home Every conversation ended before it began You filed me under "optional" in your master plan I watched you light up for anyone but me Then act confused why the temperature dropped three degrees You wanted a quiet accessory standing in line Not a girl with opinions that refuse to decline I won't shrink my volume just to keep your peace Your comfort was never my job to increase You wrote me off like a footnote you could skip Now the footnote's the verse and you're losing your grip You made me feel invisible Cut me out the picture like I never belonged You made me feel invisible Now the silence you built is the hook of this song You made me feel invisible Watch me take the space you swore I couldn't own You made me feel invisible But I'm still here and I'm not going home Don't tell me who I get to be Don't sketch the edges then call it complete I am not the draft you keep on revision I am the final page you never got permission You wanted easy you wanted small I arrived as the opposite of all So look again the air you ignored Has a pulse and a name and it's taking the floor You made me feel invisible Cut me out the picture like I never belonged You made me feel invisible Now the silence you built is the hook of this song You made me feel invisible Watch me take the space you swore I couldn't own You made me feel invisible But I'm still here and I'm not going home You made me feel invisible You made me feel invisible You made me feel invisible But I'm still here and I'm not going home
