I take a compliment, and I distort it
I know I've never been good at reading warnings
You like my temperament, so you support it
Shower me in praise, then get mad when I ignore it
(Sorry!) I know flattery when I see it, yeah no
Don't call me the goat, I simply cannot be it yet
Though I hope to be there at the top some day
I know good things come to those who wait

First thing she does is name search
She says it entertains her
The things I do for fame hurt
Keep it in my grasp, what little I have left of me
To be called an ass, would simply be the death of me
Gotta go fast, to finally reach my destiny
Have you seen the best of me if you don't even text me back

I'm a control freak
I'm so obsessed with my image and it controls me
I simply fall to my knees, and pray to God and plead
That I won't lose it all in a week (I've worked so fucking hard)
I'm a control freak
I'm so obsessed with my image and it controls me

Always ready to fight for your life just for an asshole
Truman Show the way your circle's full of actors
Zeroing in on the before and not the after
Chasing your tail over shit that doesn't matter
(Dog!) You're crazy, and I won't be a part of it
Whining bout the fighting, but you're the one who started it
You're not the center, you're not some fucking conduit
Think no one notices, bitch, we've all been onto it

I'm a control freak
I'm so obsessed with my image and it controls me
I simply fall to my knees, and pray to God and plead
That I won't lose it all in a week (I've worked so fucking hard)

I think that my 5 minutes of fame will be over any minute
I am merely a spectacle that will never be forgiven

So what you sayin', I'm irrelevant
Cuz I've turned away from making you a profit
Thirty thousand hours of my life, I think I've lost it
I'm the sunk cost fallacy in the flesh
if I put another track in this track, it might be the best
I am not a symbol, I will not be treated as such
I'm just a man with an agenda, yeah they can't catch up
Control freak, I've got them all right under my thumb
Go tell them all to run, go tell them all to run

If I ever sign a record deal, you might as well shoot me
Cuz I'd rather go to hell than let a label deal screw me
So much baggage attached to my persona's duties
And the best part is I don't think she ever knew me
I'm the queen, on a throne of lies
It be fake it til I make it for my whole damn life
I got an audience of four seeing through the disguise
As I'm preparing to be baptized

I simply fall down
To my knees
And pray to God
And plead (I've worked so fucking hard)
(I'm a control freak)
(I'm so obsessed with my image and it controls me) That I won't
(I simply fall to my knees, and pray to God and plead) Lose it all in a week
(That I won't lose it all in a week) I'm a control freak
(I've worked so fucking hard)"
