lyrics

I’ve never claimed some noble rite
Got less cash than what’s in my hand
Never knelt down before the queen
Got no land near, far, or between.

Im not your knight, don't call me sir
Im not that type, don't call me sir
Im not your bro, some just call me fam
Im not male, so don't call me man

No thank you not me, i don’t relate
Please don’t share tips on how to procreate
No thank you I’m good, I won’t play along
I dunno try go home alone? this bird don’t sing that song

**
I will say that you’re not the one
Who sets me straight, or tell me i'm wrong
Neither I or the world owes you this
explanation, expectation, performance, none of it

I see this attitude, all fired up on anatomy;
got flames in his britches, he got that thirst in his wishes
Head full of thoughts about how and not one about her
A head full with now hides his heart behind sir.
**

Please don't call me,
don't call me sir

In my mind, where there is only me
She tells me I am her, that I should let me free
After all this time hiding hatred for myself
Maybe this time I’ll feel love for myself

I’ve got dysphoria for days, trade denim for dresses
But body dysmorphia keeps me soring with stresses
Looking in the mirror my is wretched complexion
Instead she said wait, please have just a bit more compassion

I’ve never tried to tame any dragons
I’ve never been looking for honor for having
I’m not your officer, I’m not your sovereign
That respect is violence, the culture is silence
