Gotta Be Me
I won't let you do it to me do it to me no more
I was hiding behind a picture I just wanted you to adore
My shadows always challenging me caring what they say
Now I'm accepting what the truth is anyway
One day the lights will go off and they ain't gonna come back on
I refuse to live my life in fear, deep down I know I'm strong
Thirty-four years didn't think that I was really awake
Took some dark days before that weakness would break
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
Remembering anxieties that would build the night before
I would worry how they'd judge me my self-worth was on the floor
I realized that I don't need no one to validate
Any sense of who I am goes so much deeper than my face
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
All I'm trying to do is be honest bout myself
It's time we started talking about our mental health
Spending time creating a version for someone else
Would leave a hole so empty your soul would just rebel
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
I was hiding behind a picture I just wanted you to adore
My shadows always challenging me caring what they say
Now I'm accepting what the truth is anyway
One day the lights will go off and they ain't gonna come back on
I refuse to live my life in fear, deep down I know I'm strong
Thirty-four years didn't think that I was really awake
Took some dark days before that weakness would break
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
Remembering anxieties that would build the night before
I would worry how they'd judge me my self-worth was on the floor
I realized that I don't need no one to validate
Any sense of who I am goes so much deeper than my face
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
All I'm trying to do is be honest bout myself
It's time we started talking about our mental health
Spending time creating a version for someone else
Would leave a hole so empty your soul would just rebel
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
I just wanna be free
Gotta be me
Took so long to truly find myself, now finally I see
Gotta be me
