It Didn’t Change Me

[Verse 1] They said I’d lose myself in neon lights Dollar signs and sleepless nights “Money changes everything” That’s what they love to sing But I was broke and I was loud Same sharp edges in the crowd Different shoes, same heartbeat Still the fire, still the heat [Pre-Chorus] You call it change — I call it truth I just grew into my proof [Chorus] Money didn’t change me — oh oh It revealed me — oh oh Every scar, every flaw Now I finally see it all Money didn’t change me — hey hey It just freed me — hey hey Now I stand tall and say: It revealed me — and I’m okay [Verse 2] Same dreams, just bigger rooms Same voice, louder tunes If you thought I’d disappear I’m still right here You see shine, I see scars Every mile, every bar I’m not new, I’m just seen Stronger than I’ve ever been [Pre-Chorus] You call it change — I call it truth I just grew into my proof [Chorus – louder] Money didn’t change me — oh oh It revealed me — oh oh Every crack, every line Now I know that they’re all mine Money didn’t change me — hey hey It just freed me — hey hey And that satisfaction? It’s mine — it’s mine — it’s mine [Bridge – half time, emotional] I was always this way Just afraid to say Now I don’t hide I don’t run away [Final Chorus – big, jumpy] Money didn’t change me — oh oh It revealed me — oh oh No apologies to say I’m the same — just unafraid Money didn’t change me — hey hey It just freed me — hey hey And that satisfaction? Yeah — that’s me.
