Olivia Rodrigo - Olivia Rodrigo - A Short Film (Vevo LIFT) lyrics
[Olivia Rodrigo - Olivia Rodrigo - A Short Film Vevo LIFT lyrics]
I spend a lot of time by myself i come up
With my best ideas when I'm like truly alone
And I think that's sort of why I fell in love
With songwriting i've always been
A super emotional
I've always felt things really deeply, so
Writing has really been a way for me
To sort of process those emotions
And make them a little
Less confusing things become
So much clearer when you write them down
Become so much more manageable
When you can sort of look at them on a paper
Or hear it in a song
Crеating SOUR was exactly that
Experiеnce i really used it as a way to
Process so many uncomfortable emotions
And so many
Emotions that aren't really publicly
Fun or acceptable to
Express jealousy and anger and like spite
And I think there wouldn't be
No way for me to like express that any other
Way except for songwriting
Making music has really taught me how
To have confidence in my
Point of view and my choices
"drivers license" is such
A my heart on a silver platter song
And all of
My favourite artist said this, "once
You make a song, you have to sort of
Disassociate yourself from it, and be like
'okay, it's the world's now
And the world can project whatever
They want to on it, and
The only thing you can do is
Write a song that resonates
With you'" I am never gonna
Sacrifice writing truthful, authentic
Personal songs for fear of what a couple
People on the internet are gonna say
(Do you get déjà vu, huh?)
I'm so not the girl that I
Was when I wrote SOUR
I remember writing it and being so sad and so
Insecure i have moments all the
Time where I'll just like
Remember where I was and how I was feeling
And I'm
Just like so far from that now, and I'm so
Proud of that when "drivers
License" came out, i remember driving around
Listening to that song and driving
On these streets that I
Remember driving down being so sad
And unsure of myself
Listening to a song that I had made and
Feeling so empowered for the first time
Growing up never really scared me
I always get really excited by the
Though of getting older it's
Cool to look back and see
How much you've grown
And, I just love figuring out more
About myself, and about the world, coming
Into my own more, and i feel
That's a product of growing up
So why would I be scared of that?
With my best ideas when I'm like truly alone
And I think that's sort of why I fell in love
With songwriting i've always been
A super emotional
I've always felt things really deeply, so
Writing has really been a way for me
To sort of process those emotions
And make them a little
Less confusing things become
So much clearer when you write them down
Become so much more manageable
When you can sort of look at them on a paper
Or hear it in a song
