Tears Disguised as Raindrops

A girl with looks like yours,
she must be on a mission 

A pretty face 
that could flip a bias 
before even knowing it existed 

Takes for granite everything,
and owes everyone apologies 

But guess who’s never looking back
She says she’s never looking back for better

Oh, she’s grown from then
and never looking back 
gives her the time to discover 
new opportunities ahead of her 

Her biggest weakness,
not her lack of discipline 
it’s the world she validates 
within the head on her shoulders
