Lauv - First Grade Lyrics

First grade, I see a girl alone in the world
Trying to paint in beautiful colors
With an innocent mother

And the story as it's told, is not a pretty one
But it's still a story I wanna unfold

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you that it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are, is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me

Mmm
And I know you get discouraged sometimes
'Cause you're scared that your father was right
But I promise you'll see the things that I see in time, mmm

Now wait 'til there comes a day
When you get through the pain
And all of the shit you hold inside

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you that it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are, is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

'Cause, baby, I love you
I don't really know you
I wanna show you that it's okay to be who you are
'Cause who you are, is a star
Who you are is beautiful, beautiful
Who you are to me
