[Verse 1]
I can be anything, no matter who's around
The fire burning at my feet ain't burning me out
I can be they, I can be so gay
I can be anywhere any kind of way
[Pre-Chorus]
I hate the normal life
Give me the other side
I want to fantasize
I don't need the alkaline
I hate the normal life
Give me the other side
I want to fantasize
I don't need the alkaline
[Chorus]
Shapeshifter, anything I choose
Change figures just to get through
Shattered ceilings, everything I do
I'll cut my teeth like fruity loop jewels
Shapeshifter, anything I choose
Change figures just to get through
Shattered ceilings, everything I do
I'll cut my teeth like fruity loop jewels
[Post-Chorus]
Big dog, big dog, big bark
Who's here? I'm here
Good job, go me
Yeah, I can be anything
Big dog, big dog, big bark
Who’s here? I'm here
Good job, go me
Yeah, I can be anything
[Verse 2]

[Pre-Chorus]
I hate the normal life
Give me the other side
I want to fantasize
I don't need the alkaline
I hate the normal life
Give me the other side
I want to fantasize
I don't need the alkaline
[Chorus]
Shapeshifter, anything I choose
Change figures just to get through
Shattered ceilings, everything I do
I'll cut my teeth like fruity loop jewels
Shapeshifter, anything I choose
Change figures just to get through
Shattered ceilings, everything I do
I'll cut my teeth like fruity loop jewels
[Post-Chorus]
Big dog, big dog, big bark
Who's here? I'm here
Good job, go me
Yeah, I can be anything
Big dog, big dog, big bark
Who’s here? I'm here
Good job, go me
Yeah, I can be anything

I wrote ‘SHAPESHIFTER’ with Zach Fogarty (Jean Dawson, Claud). It really touches on my gender dysphoria and how I, in order to feel accepted in a space, to be able to survive in a space, have to shape-shift. I’m constantly trying to understand gender and my behavior because of gender, and other peop...
