*Lyrics*
Why do you have to share your story?
It’s all I ever hear you say
It’s time to rise above the noise
I have a choice
And I’ll use my voice
And darling, I’ll do this my way
Maybe there’s a sense of freedom
Found in authenticity
Talking about the things they did
I was innocent
I was just a kid
I need to share the things that make me
But all I sense is your shame
If they associate you with my name
Whatever you meant it’s the same
To you it’s not love it’s a game
I hope that when you see my photo
On the cover of the magazine
You’ll see what I set to achieve
You’ll understand why I had to leave
Forgive me, I’m not trying to be mean
You made me feel like I was different
Like you was beauty, I’m the beast
You put your reputation first
Over what is right and that’s the worst
But no, you won’t bring me to my knees
I’ll be standing tall
Not waiting around for your call
You’ve only yourself to blame
To you it’s not love, it’s a game
And all that’s left to say
Is I hope you find your way
We set our world to flames
To you it’s not love, it’s a game
Great keep speaking out bless you ❤❤❤
Thank you!🙏
So happy to see you upload again! :D I found your channel a while back and really admired your spiritual / emotional understandings of life and ability to write meaningful lyrics. Also extremely catchy tunes… I’ve listened to “Leaving You Behind” multiple times and it’s gotten stuck in my head. Which is a good thing, it’s one of my favorite songs, especially for its lyrics.
Just listened to this song and really love it a lot! Like I said, your lyrics are very thoughtful and encouraging. I think your story and ability to translate complex thoughts into understandable words can really help encourage others. At the least it has helped me a bit!
(Apologies for my silly comment. I’m not the best with words. Very happy to see you uploaded a new song and really love your music! Happy New Year! 🎉)
Thank you for your really kind and lovely comment! There's absolutely no need to be sorry for that - I am so grateful:)
Have a fantastic New Year and thank you so much for the support 🙏
@@SophieOttsOf course! :D And thank you. Like I’ve said, I really love your music. Look forward to seeing more, I think you’ll go far.
Have a good new year, Sophie.
Thank you! You too!! Here’s to 2024!🙏🙌🎉
Also, Sophie, if you don't mind me asking, do you identify as a lesbian or as bisexual? Or as a lesbian-leaning bisexual? I seem to recall reading you mention somewhere that most of your past dates/relationships have been with other women.
I’m neither. I’m a straight male the system forced into a fake female body.
You ask lots of questions. Are you running some kind of study on me? You creep me out
@@SophieOtts Thanks. I just wanted to clarify this part because you did say in one of your interviews (the one with Mark Dolan, near the end of it) that you did also identify as a female as a result of your forced transition.
@@SophieOtts No; rather, I'm just curious about your life story. That's all there is to it.
Personally, I've experienced extreme disgust with what male puberty did to my own body and I think that female puberty would have been better on me (but with the penis). But I think that the best of all would have been a hypothetical androgynous version of puberty for me since I don't want breasts or large hips either. I just don't like all of the facial hair and body hair and male pattern baldness that male puberty has resulted in for me. (I'm currently saving up money for both full-body and facial laser hair removal.)
FWIW, if you're curious, you can also identify as a eunuch if you want. Though I don't know if you would actually want to since the decision to remove your testicles wasn't actually yours, unlike for the people over at the Eunuch Archive.
@@SophieOtts I figure that since you willingly put your own life story out there, I might as well ask you whatever questions you are comfortable answering. If you don't want to answer them, then that's fine. You don't have to answer them.
Sophie, have you ever considered what I have previously told you about the possible option of in-vitro gametogenesis (IVG) to have your own biological children in 10 or 20 years' time?
It’s very interesting! Thank you for the share. After the scamdemic, I am not sure I will ever trust “science”.
But I really appreciate you signposting me to it
@@SophieOtts What specifically did you dislike about what scientists did during the COVID-19 pandemic? I'm curious.
And science has often resulted in a lot of good outcomes, though unfortunately it has also sometimes resulted in bad outcomes, such as in what happened to you. Anyway, my own advice to you would be to closely keep track of developments in the field of IVG during the next 10, 20 and 25 years. By the time that you're 60 or 65, you might finally be able to have your own biological children. If you will be too old to personally raise your own children at such an age (even with a significantly younger spouse helping you out with childcare), you could still have kids (with a surrogate if necessary) and then give the kids up for adoption in the form of an open adoption so that you could still maintain a relationship with them post-adoption. It's a last-ditch option but might work for some people. That's what I myself plan to do if I will be too poor to afford to raise my hypothetical future kids by myself.
