I'm tired of Pretending
I'm not the person you want me to be
It would be a mistake not to live as me
Your expectations are Suffocating
I can't be who you want me to be
I can't sleep whenever I try
You love that person- but that's not me
To be that person would be a lie
I'm tired of feeling the pressure
Of the expectations you have for me
You're smothering me, like my own oppressor
If I spend another minute pretending I'll bleed
I'm done pretending, so you see
I'm letting go 'cause I'm done fighting
I'm moving on and redefining
The rebirth of the person that's truly me
