I woke up like this, didn’t even try
Every camera flashing, caught my eye
Wasn’t looking for the spotlight glow
Now they follow everywhere I go
People stop and stare wherever I step
Guess I got that thing that you can’t get
Not a plan, not a game I play
Just happened this way, yeah, just okay
I’m an icon by mistake
Got that shine that they can’t take
Didn’t mean to steal the show
Now everybody wants to know
How I walk, how I talk, how I move like this
Not trying to be the one they miss
I’m an icon by mistake
Yeah, that’s just how it breaks
Style comes easy, don’t need to try hard
Standing out even in the dark
Every word I say, every move I make
They remember every single shake
Not chasing fame, it came right to me
Just being myself, that’s all it had to be
Who would’ve thought that I’d be here now
Turning every single head around
I’m an icon by mistake
Got that shine that they can’t take
Didn’t mean to steal the show
Now everybody wants to know
How I walk, how I talk, how I move like this
Not trying to be the one they miss
I’m an icon by mistake
Yeah, that’s just how it breaks
It wasn’t written, it wasn’t planned
Just fell right into my hand
Not for the crown, not for the name
Just living light, just living plain
Now look at us, look at where we stand
Shining bright across the land
I’m an icon by mistake
Got that shine that they can’t take
Didn’t mean to steal the show
Now everybody wants to know
How I walk, how I talk, how I move like this
Not trying to be the one they miss
I’m an icon by mistake
Yeah, that’s just how it breaks
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, ooh
Icon by mistake
Yeah, that’s just how it goes
