Being someone else is like a trap Pretending to be others is like being nabbed As you're imprisoning yourself in a jail Where you refused to accept the bail.
Worrying about what others will say As you're trying to please anybody Thereby you neglect your distinct personality As you're trying to fit into the community.
Putting your mask on — It's as bright as the clear skies But as you lie in bed alone — Only a gleam of hope that'll arise.
My friend, there is no one like you You've got no duplicate, you're unique as you When acceptance and security were hard to find God purposefully made you — keep that in mind.
You don't have anything to prove You're precious, loved, and valued Just stay as special as you are Take off that mask; escape from the bars.
You should focus solely on your mission Don't be bothered if you don't belong Don't waste your energy pleasing all people Be yourself — bring a smile to the lover of your soul.
