Familiar - Steven Universe, Zach Callison

Familiar, why is this so familiar?

Familiar, like something I use to know

Familiar, staring up at the ceiling

Familiar, I swear that I know this feeling

Where everybody wants me to be mom

And everything I do, I do it wrong

I sway them with a joke, or with a song

And maybe that’ll help us get along

Familiar, why is this so familiar?

Familiar, like something I use to do

Familiar, she used to throw a tantrum

Insisting that, «Hey, I’m a diamond too.»

I bet she drove them crazy all the time

They love her but they’re leaving her behind

With more important places they should be

Then hanging out with someone just like me

Familiar, that’s why it’s so familiar

Familiar, like someone I used to be

Familiar, but this time I’ve had some practice

At helping a struggling family

Oh, I’ll get them all together in one place

And once we’re all together, face to face

I’ll show them all the error of their ways

And stop their spread of terror across space
