[Spoken]
CHey
It's been a while since you saw my face
C7I haven't been doing so great
So I took a little break
GA lot of people are saying some things about me that aren't quite true
C7Doesn't matter if it's true though
CJust as long as it's entertaining to you, right?
You guys having fun?
[Chorus]
C C7All aboard the toxic gossip train
G C7Chugging down the tracks of misinformation
C C7The toxic gossip train
G C7You got a one way ticket to manipulation station
C C7Toxic gossip train
G GmTie me to the tracks and harass me for my past
C G7Those rumors look like facts if you don't mind the gaps
G C7I won't survive in the crash but hey
N.C. C
At least you're havin' fun
C
[Spoken]
CUh, hi everyone
CI've been wanting to come online and talk to you about a few things
CUm, even though my team has strongly advised me to not say what I want to say
CI recently realized that they never said that I couldn't sing what I wanna say, so
CHere I am, and, um, today I only wanna talk about the facts
CSo, I hope that you'll be willing to listen
CHere we go
CMany years ago, I used to message my fans
CUh, but not in a creepy way like a lot of you are trying to suggest
CIt was more of a loser kind of way
CWhere I was just trying to be besties with everybody
CIt was kinda like, uh when you Go to like a family gathering, you know?
CAnd there's a weird aunt there who keeps coming up to you and going like "Hey girl, what's the tea!"
CAnd you're like "Ehhh"
CUm, that was me, but in group chats with my fans, it was weird
[Verse 1]
CI've been sharing my life online for over 15 years
CI've poured my heart out to and because of that I feel
GLike I'm talking to my friends, but, in the beginning of my career
C7I didn't really understand that maybe there should be some boundaries there
G CThere were times in the DMs when I would overshare
C7 CDetails of my life, which was really weird of me
G CI haven't done that for years, you see
C7 CBecause I changed my behavior, and I took accountability
[Spoken]
N.C.
But that's not very interesting, is it?
[Chorus]
C C7So let's Go on the toxic gossip train
G C7The locomotive's fueled with hateful accusations
C C7The toxic gossip train
G C7Steamroll over someone's reputation
C C7Toxic gossip train
G GmHop on board, but close your eyes, otherwise you'll realize
C G7That the train is made of lies and that person you despise
G C7Maybe didn't deserve to die, but hey
N.C. C
At least you're havin' fun
[Spoken]
CIn all seriousness, I Do think it's really important to hold people accountable for their mistakes
CUm, y'know, we should hope that everyone can learn from their mistakes
CAnd grow, and change their behavior, and be a better person
CThis is something that I've always tried to Do when I make mistakes
CAnd is something that I will continue to try t- what?
N.C.
Oh, you don't care? Oh, okay
[Verse 2]
CI thought you wanted me to take accountability
C7But that's not the point of your mob mentality is it, no
GYour goal is to ruin the life of the person you despise
C7 CWhile you dramatize your lies and monetize their demise
[Spoken]
CYeah, um, I feel like I can already hear the comments on this video
G"She's gaslighting, manipulating!"
C"Ugh, she's a narcissist and a rat!"
C7"I would never make a mistake like that."
[Verse 3]
COh, I'm sorry I didn't realize
CThat all of you are perfect, so please, criticize me
GBring out the daggers made from your perfect past
C7And stab me repeatedly in my bony little back
G C C7 CI'm sure you're disappointed in my shitty little song
G C C7 CI know that you wanted me to say that I was 100% in the wrong
G CWell, I'm sorry, I'm not gonna take that route
C7 COf admitting to lies and rumors that you made up for clout
[Verse 4]
CHey everybody, I found someone new to harass
C7She did some things that I Do not like, in her past
G C7So everybody, gather 'round, 'cause we're about to attack
C7But not based on facts, oh no
G GmYour loaded lethal weapon is your fingers on the keys
C G7You don't need any armor when you can hide behind a screen
G C7 N.C.So, shoot me down, quick, with a click, and bam
CMy reputation's deceased
[Spoken]
CUh, I also wanted to take a minute to talk about that girl, Miranda Sings
C7You know the one, yeah her
GUh, she's PG-13, it says that on my website
[Verse 5]
GAnd it's always been that way
C7And that's why you won't find my videos on the YouTube Kids app
G CAnyway, um, I didn't realize it was my responsibility
C7 CTo decide what was appropriate for every kid to see
G CI've always relied on parents to decide if they're comfortable
C7 CWith their families watching my YouTube videos or coming to my live shows
C N.C.
Now, have I made some jokes in poor taste? Yes
C7 N.C.
Have I made lots of dumb mistakes? Yes
G N.C.
sad that there's some fans that feel betrayed? Yes
C7 N.C.
But was my intention to manipulate? No
[Spoken]
CIt doesn't really matter what my intention was
C'Cause it seems as though everyone's already decided on that
CLet me tell you, it's not very fun to have millions of people all over the world
CCall you the most vile, horrendous, disgusting, life-ruining words
CThat a person can be called, in my opinion
CUm, it doesn't matter that these things aren't true
C N.C.
Uh, everyone just believes that you are the type of person who manipulates and abuses children
N.C.
So, I just wanted to say that, um
C C7The only thing that I've ever groomed is my 2 Persian cats
G GmI'm not a groomer, I'm just a loser
[Verse 6]
C C7Who didn't understand I shouldn't respond to fans
G GmAnd I'm not a predator even though a lot of you think so
C C7Because 5 years ago, I made a fart joke
N.C.
So,
G Ceven though I know this video won't change anyone's mind about me
N.C. C7
I still felt it was important to come on here and defend myself a little
CAnd take accountability
N.C.
And I also wanted to say that
G CTo anyone out there who has ever supported me in any capacity
[Spoken]
C7I really, really appreciate you, thank you
N.C.
For what it's worth, I never had any bad intentions
N.C.
But I Do feel like shit
[Chorus]
C C7The toxic gossip train
G C7Chugging down the tracks of misinformation
C C7The toxic gossip train
G C7You got a one way ticket to manipulation station
C C7Toxic gossip train
G GmTie me to the tracks and harass me for my past
C G7Rumors look like facts when you don't mind the gaps
G C7I won't survive in the crash but hey
N.C.
I hope you had some fun
[Spoken]
N.C. C
Actually, y'know, I feel like maybe I should
CLet you guys know something, um
CSeems like, maybe you're confused about something? I don't know
N.C.
Let me try to help, um
[Verse 7]
CSometimes people make a mistake and it doesn't make them a horrible person, whoa
G C7Sometimes people can make a mistake and they're still a good person
N.C.
Crazy, I know
C C7Sometimes people can make a mistake and you don't have to take that mistake, oh no
GAnd twist it up, and grind it, and add some lies to it, and pulverize it
G N.C.
And stab it with knives, and ruin a life, and, oh no
C C7Sometimes people can make a mistake, it doesn't mean you gotta send them hate, oh no
G C7Sometimes people can make a mistake and you can kindly let them know, and help them to grow
G C C G7Sometimes people make mistakes, simply because they made a mistake?
G C7And that mistake doesn't make them a terrible human
CIt just makes them a human
[Spoken]
N.C.
But what Do I know?
N.C.
Fuck me, right?
