“Be Like You” is one of the darker and more alternative songs on this tape. Broods sent me the initial idea, and I connected with the message of not wanting to be like somebody or follow trends. I wanted the production to be heavy hitting to contrast Georgia’s dreamlike tones.

[Verse 1: Georgia Nott]
Heard what you said 'round in my head
Making me sober
Taking it in, you can't pretend you didn't notice
Pick it apart, back to the start
I didn't know ya
Give it a chance, watching you dance
I didn't feel ya
[Pre-Chorus: Georgia Nott]
Even though you're it right now
I don't want your crown
Even if I fall apart
[Chorus: Georgia Nott]
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do
[Verse 2: Georgia Nott]
Heard what you said, 'round in my head
Making me sober
Know how it ends
You and your friends won't even notice
You read your part right from the start
Nobody knew you
Give it a chance
Know I can
[Chorus: Georgia Nott]
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do
You, you
I don't wanna be like you, you
I don't wanna do what you do

The song is about a stage when we felt that nothing was really about the music anymore, and that you have to be so many other things to be a pop artist these days other than just writing good songs. I guess it’s an expression of how frustrating it can be when you only want to do it for the music.
