lyrics:
i’ve always played the part of Shakespeare
i hide behind the ink and pen
i build up worlds and choose a savior
i write beginning, middle, end
i’m so tired of being a book on the shelf
tired of stories for somebody else
think that i’m ready to start a new chapter
i’ve been looking for some way to turn it around
looking for someone to give me the crown
i wanna feel like i finally matter
i wanna be a mona lisa
the kinda girl that you can dream of
and i always had the words but i don’t wanna say it
wish i could paint a smile on my face
i wanna be a mona lisa
so is there anybody out there
who could change my point of view
the way that Van Gogh uses yellow
or the self in Frida Kahlo
i could be that for you
i’m so tired of being a book on the shelf
tired of stories for somebody else
think that i’m ready to start a new chapter
i’ve been looking for someway to turn it around
looking for someone to give me the crown
i wanna feel like i finally matter
i wanna be a mona lisa
the kinda girl that you can dream of
and i always had the words but i don’t wanna say it
wish i could paint a smile on my face
i wanna be a mona lisa
i think i’m ready for my close up, baby
there’s nothing left to do
and nothing left to lose
let me be your muse
and i always had the words but i don’t wanna say it
wish i could paint a smile on my face
i wanna be a mona lisa

Ah always love listening to her songs just sitting in bed, doing nothing but listening to the lyrics/singing them whilst looking at the ceiling.

[@veragonzalesjhonatanjoel800]

Como fan latino, tienes una voz muy hermosa Hasta ahora digo porque no toman encerio a este tipo de artistas, su música es muy sana

[@sebastiand8219]

I love your voice Maia, please never stop sharing your voice and beautiful way of writing to the world :)

[@figthegiant9324]

Ngl I love how quiet it is in comparison to the original version🤩

[@ernestotejada4974]

This video is 200% better than that last one. I think seeing this gives me hope she has a chance at a bigger career in music. I enjoy being here near the start but I wish I could share how good I think she is with more people. I wish they see the creative artist I see and hear.
