Letra Not Jessica, I’m Jessie par Jessie Paege

Moved out alone at 16
It wasn't legal
No one cared to tell me
Yet I made it through

Took my body wasting away to realize
Blood may be thick
But the water of the womb is weak

17 a claim to my life
Left me in the hospital
A cry for help

Scared of my mom every night
But I couldn't question it
My mouth was sealed shut
A drink in hers


I came back
To be the hero I never had
But they just hurt me again

I took the (sic)k
Out of Jessica
And I chose Jessie

Nevеr meant to be born
So I got a new lifе
I'm not Jessica
I said I'm Jessie

My body
My voice
My story
My life
They've never been yours

(Ooo)

I'm scared whenever the door creaks
Who will it be?
Did you give life to me or take it from me?

All this time
Maybe I wasn't shy
Maybe you weren't listening

Your money can't buy you
Accountability
Your paper means nothing to me (nothing to me)

Can't buy me a new rug
To sweep your mess under
I won't keep my lips shut

Before I could speak, I was born into debt
You should have paid that off
My debt comes with a name
That I don't claim
And I'm writing it off


Why did I come back?
To be the hero I never had
But they just hurt me again

I took the (sic)k
Out of Jessica
And I chose Jessie

Never meant to be born
So I got a new life
I'm not Jessica
I said I'm Jessie

My body
My voice
My story
My life
They've never been yours


Why did I come back?
To be the hero I never had
But they just hurt me again

I took the (sic)k
Out of Jessica
And I chose Jessie

Never meant to be born
So I got a new life
I'm not Jessica
I said I'm Jessie

My body
My voice
My story
My life
They've never been yours

As I say goodbye I hope that you are listening
Rebuild my kingdom that didn't want war

As I greet the world as a new me
I say I'm not Jessica
I'm Jessie
