I just made something unexpected
Something sharp, something new
It's not symmetrical or perfect
But it's beautiful, and it's mine
What else can I do?
Bring it in, bring it in (good talk)
Bring it in, bring it in (what else can I do?)
(Let's walk) bring it in, bring it in
(Free hugs) bring it in, bring it in
I grow rows and rows of roses
Flor de mayo by the mile
I make perfect, practiced poses
So much hides behind my smile
What could I do if I just grew what I was feeling in the moment?
(Do you know where you're going? Whoa)
What could I do if I just knew it didn't need to be perfect?
It just needed to be, and they let me be
A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs (big), hanging vines (this is fine)
Palma de cera fills the air as I climb, and I push through
What else can I do?
Can I deliver us a river of sundew?
Careful, it's carnivorous, a little just won't do
I wanna feel the shiver of something new
I'm so sick of pretty, I want something true, don't you?
You just seem like your life's been a dream (whoa)
Since the moment you opened your eyes (how far do these roots go down?)
All I know are the blossoms you grow (whoa)
But it's awesome to see how you rise
How far can I rise?
Through the roof, to the skies, let's go
A hurricane of jacarandas (woo)
Strangling figs (go), hanging vines (grow)
Palma de cera fills the air as I climb, and I push through
What else, what else?
What can you do when you are deeply, madly, truly in the moment?
(Seize the moment, keep goin')
What can you do when you know who you wanna be is imperfect?
But I'll still be okay (hey, everybody clear the way, woo)
I'm coming through with tabebuia (she's coming through with that booyah)
Making waves (making waves), changing minds (you've changed mine)
The way is clearer 'cause you're here, and well, I owe this all to you
What else can I do? (Show 'em what you can do)
What else can I do? (There's nothing you can't do)
What else can I do?
