[Verse 1]
I was in love with her, she was in love with me
At least that's what I thought it was, mm
I felt her on my skin, but when the movie ended
She just broke my heart, mm
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, did I mean nothin' to you?
Tell me, did I ever have a chance? Mm
[Chorus]
Girl, just kiss me before you miss me
Said someday, I'm gonna be a really big star, uh-uh-uh
Taste the moment before it's done
Before you go and break my heart
You should know I'ma be a really big star
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, thеn it was over
I knew it, just like that
'Causе she stopped textin' back
I cried, but it’s
Cool she didn’t come over
But I knew that someday
I knew I'd be a really, really, really, really big star
[Verse 2]
Way back before DMs, she'd send me AIMs
With less-than-threes for hearts, mm
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, did I mean nothin' to you?
Tell me, did I ever have a chance? 'Cause
Oh, yeah, I've been all alone and
Thinkin' way back to that eighth grade dance
Oh, that dance sucked 'cause
[Chorus]
Girl, just kiss me, before you miss me
Said someday, I'm gonna be a really big star, uh-uh-uh
Taste the moment before it's done
Before you go and break my heart
You should know I'ma be a really big star
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, then it was over
I knew it, just like that
'Cause she stopped textin' back
I cried, but it’s
Cool she didn’t come over
But I knew that someday
I knew I'd be a really, really, really, really big star
[Bridge: Lauv, Joshua]
What's up, Joshua?
Joshua, can you do these lyrics? (Okay, ready?)
Can you do them for me?
You should know I'ma be a really big star
Someday, I'm gonna be a big star
Be a really big star
Someday, I'm gonna be a really big star
That's amazing (Ari, sing it)
[Chorus]
Girl, just kiss me before you miss me
Said someday, I'm gonna be a really big star, uh-uh-uh
Taste the moment before it's done
Before you go and break my heart
You should know I'ma be a really big star
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, then it was over
I knew it, just like that
'Cause she stopped textin' back
I cried, but it’s
Cool she didn’t come over
But I knew that someday
I knew I'd be a really, really, really, really big star
[Outro]

When I started this album, I was going through a big existential crisis, questioning everything I had and why I had it. I was also struggling a lot with self confidence and wondering if I ever truly had that, where I lost it, etc. I heard somewhere that as kids, we’re all born with this innate confi...
I discovered inner-child meditation and that led to this song. I was at a therapy retreat in the middle of nowhere Arizona, guided through meditation. You visualise yourself at a younger age. And for me, different ages were coming up—eight-year-old me, 12-year-old me, 14-year-old me going on these l...
