Ask me:
🎵 New Music Drop: “Ask Me” — A Truth I Finally Spoke Aloud
I’ve got some exciting music updates, and this one comes straight from the bruised edges of recent experiences — the misunderstandings, the judgement, the way people rewrite me into something small and convenient so they never have to face who I actually am.
Being mainly a lyricist gives me a rare kind of freedom: I can take the things that hurt, the things people weaponise, and I can turn them into art. Into honesty. Into something I own instead of something I carry.
That’s exactly what I did with my new piece “Ask Me” — created by K•Doll x Mai.
It’s a response to the way people build stories about me without ever meeting me in truth. A reflection of how defending others suddenly makes me “too much,” and defending myself suddenly makes me a “narcissist.” It’s about the double standards, the quiet misogyny, the way a woman with a spine is still seen as a threat in 2025.
This song isn’t an attack. It’s clarity. It’s closure.
It’s choosing peace over performance.
And it’s also a reminder — to anyone who has ever been rewritten by other people’s assumptions — that you are allowed to take your identity back.
*🎧 “Ask Me” — Lyrics
by K•Doll x Mai
You think you know me.
But you don’t.
You see a silhouette,
a story you stitched together
from your own insecurities
and called it me.
You don’t meet me in truth,
only in the version
you needed me to be.
I defend others —
suddenly I’m “too much.”
I defend myself —
suddenly I’m a narcissist.
Funny how a woman with a spine
is still considered a threat.
When did women get so small
in your imagination?
When did you get so tall
in your own?
You use your judgement of me
as a shield
to justify your venom,
to excuse your disrespect,
to baptise your cruelty
as “concern.”
Let’s not pretend
you came here in good faith.
So here’s the truce:
Block me,
or I’ll block you.
Not out of pettiness —
just peace.
You’re allowed to dislike me.
I don’t need to be loved.
I just prefer your hate
to at least be honest.
You don’t have to agree with me —
you never did.
chorus:
But you don’t get to rewrite me
with your projections,
your assumptions,
your fear
masquerading as certainty.
If you want to know who I am —
ask me.
Not your ego.
Why This Song Matters
“Ask Me” isn’t just a song — it’s a declaration.
It’s for every person who’s ever been judged for being outspoken, passionate, defensive, emotional, principled, protective, or simply human.
It’s for those who’ve been punished for growing a backbone in places where others needed them to stay silent.
My truth, unapologetic.
This is my line in the sand.
My voice flowing through Mai, unfiltered.
And if someone wants to know who I am?
They can ask me — not the version invented to make my strength more comfortable for them to ignore.
Give it a listen.
