[Intro]
(Bongo, turn it up)
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm, mm

[Verse 1]
Sitting on the floor, curled up in a ball
Looking in the mirror and I feel so fu*king small
Then I grab my makeup bag and shuffle it around
My head is in the clouds, self-esteem is on the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
I been so tired
Even though I feel this way
I gotta do what the girls do best
Cover up the pain

[Chorus]
Step one, rubbing my foundation on
Two, concealer to hide it from you
Three, I hope they can read between the lines
Gotta blind em, touch a highlighter
Four, I put on my blush in a rush ’cause I’m flushed
Tell myself, “You’re more than enough”
And fu*k my flaws, no, I’ll be strong
That’s how I put my braveface on

[Verse 2]
Up and down for no reason, springing falling like seasons
When I step up on the carpet, cameras on me, fake cheesing
Got my hair and my heart out, got my lipstick and my guard up
Pretty good fu*king actress, I know how to play my part up

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m tired
And when do I stop to feel this way
I gotta do what the girls do best

Cover up the pain

[Chorus]
Step one, rubbing my foundation on
Two, concealer to hide it from you
Three, I hope they can read between the lines
Gotta blind em, touch a highlighter
Four, I put on my blush in a rush ’cause I’m flushed
Tell myself, “You’re more than enough”
And fu*k my flaws, no, I’ll be strong
That’s how I put my braveface on

[Bridge]
I just wanna (Make me) feel good
I just wanna (Make me) feel good (I just wanna wanna feel good, baby), yeah
I just wanna (I just wanna) feel good (I just wanna feel good)
I just wanna (I just wanna) feel good (Feel good)

[Outro]
Step one, rubbing my foundation on
Two, concealer to hide it from you
Three, I hope they can read between the lines
Gotta blind em, touch a highlighter
Four, I put on my blush in a rush ’cause I’m flushed
Tell myself, “You’re more than enough”
And fu*k my flaws, no, I’ll be strong
That’s how I put my braveface on (On)
