Staying Power - Allie X

Composed by：Alexandra Hughes

Produced by：Allie X

I don't have the face that makes your grandma wanna smile

I don't have the milk that makes me wanna have a child

I don't have the disposition for drinks with the girls

I don't sing for straight men 'cause they just ruin the world

Wanna be good daughter but I pushed my mom away

Wanna be good patient but my doctor makes me pay

Wanna save the baby but I threw away the bath

My body's weak my mind is bleak there's one thing that I have

Staying power I've got the power

The world can hurt me I don't mind

That's 'cause I've got staying power

Minute or hour I'll wait you out

I've got all night all night

I've got all night I age like wine

The opportunity is mine

Don't wanna be a victim but I want your sympathy

Don't wanna be religious but life brought me to my knees

I've got so much to say to you that I want you to know

But I don't wanna scare you off I don't want you to go

I tried to make myself attractive in the ways I could

I tried to turn a failing body into something good

If the world could love me it could take away the hurt

But love it doesn't penetrate the only thing that works is

Staying power I've got the power

The world can hurt me I don't mind

That's 'cause I've got staying power

Minute or hour I'll wait you out

I've got all night all night

I've got all night I age like wine

The opportunity is mine

Yes

Yes

Oh yeah

Staying power I've got the power

The world can hurt me I don't mind

That's 'cause I've got staying power

Minute or hour I'll wait you out

I've got all night all

Staying power I've got the power

The world can hurt me I don't mind

That's 'cause I've got staying power

Minute or hour I'll wait you out

I've got all night all night

I've got all night I age like wine

The opportunity is mine

The opportunity is mine

Mine mine mine

The opportunity is mine
