Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mention a name we know (We know)

Appear tame, it shows (Shows)

Please don't feign the ropes (The ropes)

Always the same, I know (I know)

[PreChorus]

I'm cheerleading myself

I should've made it matter

I'm cheerleading myself

I should've made it matter

[Chorus]

I'm cheerleading myself

God, let it go

It doesn't mean a thing

I should've made it matter

I'm cheerleading myself

Chance and sow

Nothing changing

I should've made it matter

[Verse 2]

There's no time to go (To go)

Through the designs we know (We know)

Never mind, although (Although)

Maybe this time, we'll grow (We'll grow)

[PreChorus]

I'm cheerleading myself

I should've made it matter

I'm cheerleading myself

I should've made it matter

[Chorus]

I'm cheerleading myself

God, let it go

It doesn't mean a thing

I should've made it matter

I'm cheerleading myself

Chance and sow

Nothing changing

I should've made it matter

[Chorus]

I'm cheerleading myself

God, let it go

It doesn't mean a thing

I should've made it matter

I'm cheerleading myself

Chance and sow

Nothing changing

I should've made it matter

[Outro]

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh
