  • La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
    La de da da da da da da da, yeah

    Somebody told me fame is a disease
    You start singing the blues when you start seeing the green
    But I think it's all about what you choose
    The way you live your life, depends on you
    That's when I realized I wanna make a difference
    Change other people's lives, give hope, even for a moment
    Use my name for good and change the game I could
    Because to make it you think I gotta act a certain way
    Be a little bit insane, live a little, it's okay
    I guess we have different definitions of living
    But you'll twist my words anyway
    You'll say that I'm naive, like I don't have a past
    You're the one being deceived, I see right behind the mask
    Tryna to stir me up and get me mad
    (And I smile because) happiness is all I have, so

    La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
    La de da da da, ain't got time for ya, singing
    La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
    La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile

    You see me hanging with my fam, but that don't mean I'm living in a bubble
    You'll find me at church, but that don't mean I can't cause trouble
    Stir up a little scene 'cause isn't that what you want?
    For me to mess up, so you can dress up some story
    Saying, Tori this'll sell more records
    But I'd rather make 'em yawn than be a pawn on your chessboard
    So call me boring, call me cookie cutter
    Call me what you want, a matter of fact
    Just say it loud and don't st-stutter
    'Cause I know who I am, yeah I'm still the same
    Just a California girl with big dreams
    Thinking maybe they'll let me sing songs about real things
    And baby who knows maybe I can sell out shows without taking off my clothes
    God made me sexy I don't care if only I know

    La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
    La de da da da, ain't got time for ya, singing
    La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
    La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile

    (Oh oh, oh, oh)
    (Oh oh, oh, oh)

    Oh, and I'll just keep on singing

    La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
    La de da da da, ain't got time for ya
    La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
    La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile (lalalala)

    I might be smiling, yes
    But don't mistake kindness from weakness oh oh oh Writer/s: VICTORIA LOREN KELLY
