Start a riot

I'm on the verge of an emotional breakdown
Kinda hate myself right now
On my bed and I'm face down
I'm tired and lonely
And I'm scared to be myself
And it's messing with my health
Ain't buying what they sell, saying

Don't cry baby, it will be alright
Brush my hair and say the words they like
Hide my feelings, show 'em my body
One more time (nah)

(Ooh) I'll start a riot
Me, myself, and I, we can't keep quiet
(Ooh) I'll start a riot
I was holding back but just untied it
(I-I-I-I-I) Got some dynamite and I'm gon' light it
(I-I-I-I-I) Baby, I was born to start a riot

I watched you clap from the bleachers
This is a whole 'nother creature
Fuck what you think, fuck what you say
I'll be my own fucking feature
She do what she like and she pleases
She do what she want for no reason
You can get lost
I'mma get off to the sound of myself when I'm screaming

Don't cry baby, it will be alright
Brush my hair and say the words they like
Hide my feelings, show 'em my body
One more time (Nevermind)

(Ooh) I'll start a riot
Me, myself, and I, we can't keep quiet
(Ooh) I'll start a riot
I was holding back but just untied it
(I-I-I-I-I) Got some dynamite and I'm gon' light it
(I-I-I-I-I) Baby, I was born to start a riot

I'm on the verge of an emotional breakdown
But I can't lose it right now
'Cause I gotta fight now
So I'mma
Ooh, start a riot
Me, myself, and I, we can't keep quiet
Ooh, I'll start a riot
Was holding back but now I just untied it

(I-I-I-I-I) Got some dynamite and I'm gon' light it
(I-I-I-I-I) Baby, I was born to start a riot
(I-I-I-I) Start a riot
(I-I-I-I) Baby, I was born to start a riot
