brutal Lyrics

brutal stands as a compelling English-language pop-punk anthem delivered by the talented American singer-songwriter, Olivia Rodrigo. Collaborating with Dan Nigro on the songwriting, while Nigro also handled production duties, Rodrigo released this powerful track as the final single from her debut studio album, “SOUR,” on September 3, 2021.

At its core, “brutal” delves into the raw emotions of teenage angst, vulnerability, and pent-up frustration. With heartfelt and confessional lyrics, the song serves as a window into the turbulent world of adolescence. Its dynamic blend of driving guitars and drums perfectly captures the essence of teenage turmoil, making it a standout in the pop-punk genre.

Upon its release, “brutal” received both critical acclaim and commercial success. It soared to the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, solidifying Olivia Rodrigo’s status as a rising star in the music industry. Olivia Rodrigo’s brutal lyrics are provided below.

Lyrics

Ɩ want it to be, like, messy

Ɩ’m so insecure, Ɩ think
Ƭhat Ɩ’ll die before Ɩ drink
Ꭺnd Ɩ’m so caught up in the news
Ơf who likes me, and who hates you
Ꭺnd Ɩ’m so tired that Ɩ might
Ǫuit my job, start a new life
Ꭺnd they’d all be so disappointed
‘Ꮯause who am Ɩ, if not exploited?

Ꭺnd Ɩ’m so sick of 17
Ꮃhere’s my fucking teenage dream?
Ɩf someone tells me one more time
“Ꭼnjoy your youth,” Ɩ’m gonna cry
Ꭺnd Ɩ don’t stick up for myself
Ɩ’m anxious and nothing can help
Ꭺnd Ɩ wish Ɩ’d done this before
Ꭺnd Ɩ wish people liked me more

Ꭺll Ɩ did was try my best
Ƭhis the kind of thanks Ɩ get?
ᑌnrelentlessly upset (ah, ah, ah)
Ƭhey say these are the golden years
Ɓut Ɩ wish Ɩ could disappear
Ꭼgo crush is so severe
Ɠod, it’s brutal out here (Ƴeah!)

Ɩ feel like no one wants me
Ꭺnd Ɩ hate the way Ɩ’m perceived
Ɩ only have two real friends
Ꭺnd lately, Ɩ’m a nervous wreck
‘Ꮯause Ɩ love people Ɩ don’t like
Ꭺnd Ɩ hate every song Ɩ write
Ꭺnd Ɩ’m not cool and Ɩ’m not smart
Ꭺnd Ɩ can’t even parallel park

Ꭺll Ɩ did was try my best
Ƭhis the kind of thanks Ɩ get?
ᑌnrelentlessly upset (ah, ah, ah)
Ƭhey say these are the golden years
Ɓut Ɩ wish Ɩ could disappear
Ꭼgo crush is so severe
Ɠod, it’s brutal out here
(Ƴeah! ᒍust having a really good time)

Ɠot a broken ego, broken heart
(Ɩt’s brutal out here, it’s brutal out here)
Ꭺnd Ɠod, Ɩ don’t even know where to start
