Me

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders,

I feel like I could cry a goddamn river.


But I keep the raging storm tucked inside,

Underneath all of the fake smiles.


But they don't know that I'm so much more,

More than what they thought of me before.


Well, guess what?

I'm just a human,

I waste time,

I make mistakes,

Sometimes I lie.

It's natural for me to cry.

Just let me live my fucking life!


I might be sad,

I could be fun,

Maybe I should just run.

Cuz all my life, I've been told,

Be the one to do it all.


But now I know I'm so much more,

Than just someone to be controlled.


I'm not perfect,

I may be shy,

I can't sing to save my life,

But I guess now It's cool to say,

That it might never be okay.


I just need to find my voice,

Find a way to make my choice,


Not follow everyone else,

Make the right move step by step.


Be the one I want to be,

Not someone else's fantasy,

Live my life on my own rules,

Sometimes I'll win, sometimes I'll lose.


Now that I can agree,

That I am my own destiny,

I'll make my own mistakes and see,

How I can be the best version of 'Me'


I know that I cannot change,

But I can turn a new page,

Start over and be the one,

Be strong and be myself for once.


Cuz I don't care anymore,

I'll go outside, be free, explore,

All my life I've been locked,

At last, it's time to stop.


Be myself,

Be free,

Love,

Dream.
