lyrics

habits based
off of how i've been treated
i try to change
but i don't feel like i mean it

as i've gotten colder
all i've wanted was to offer more
but that's not accepted
so i've come to accept it

in a world
that profits from breaking us down
self-care
is the most subversive thing you can do

habits based
off of the world you witness
don't know that change
is something you can live with

(i'll learn to say this without clichés)

-

We’re a product of our environments. Hate and mistreatment are learned behaviors. When we’re in a situation that’s not emotionally healthy for us for a long time, it can affect us significantly, and negatively. We might start hating ourselves, treating others badly, or becoming generally cynical towards the world around us. Don’t let yrself fall into these patterns. When i say “self care is the most subversive thing you can do” (subconsciously inspired by something Kathleen Hanna said in her April Fools Day zine, and some things Audre Lorde has said about self-care & self-preservation being an act of political warfare) i mean just that- love yourselves despite what the world has taught you, treat others right, and smash the institutions that tell you that you can’t.
