“Flex“ is another original song from the 19-year-old singer. With a very straightforward title, on this one, she confronts the people who hate and second guess her and her success professional and as a person by admitting and embracing the fact that she does indeed have flaws just like everyone else...
[Verse 1]
Tried to flex on my ex
But I realized that he ain't worth none of my time
Made amends with my demons and smiled
'Cause they started coming alive
Heard the insults from your mouth
And spit them all out
Like the lies that they are
Let my light and success
Make you not second guess
What I'm capable of
[Pre-Chorus]
I built my pride from nothing
And you think you can throw it away
My mind starts overthinking
And like that, I forget what to say
[Chorus]
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But nothing taught me quite like this
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But like all of them
I'ma come back from it
[Verse 2]
Here I am standing face to face
With all the hate that you held up inside
Know I crushed all the feelings and you felt it too
But just look in my eye
You can hate me or love me, put items above me
But still I won't cry
Let my light and success
Make you not second guess
What I'm capable of
[Pre-Chorus]
I built my pride from nothing
And you think you can throw it away
My mind starts overthinking
And like that, I forget what to say
[Chorus]
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But nothing taught me quite like this
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But like all of them
I'ma come back from it
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
The final moment confrontation
I've been preparing for moments like this
The final moment confrontation
I've been preparing for
[Pre-Chorus]
I built my pride from nothing
And you think you can throw it away
My mind starts overthinking
And like that, I forget what to say
[Chorus]
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But nothing taught me quite like this
I've made my mistakes
I admit
But like all of them
I'ma come back from it
