All of these anxieties living inside of me,

Overwhelming me with who society tells me I've got to be,

But there's a big difference between who I've got to be and who I want to be.

Who do I want to be?

Am I a wanna be?

No.

Me and society are no longer friends but foes.

No longer staying in between the lines and status quos.

It's over, it all ends now.

I feel it more then ever I just have to let it out.

No longer do I have to feel so insecure.

I promise to not think that way anymore.

I was taught by someone I hold dear,

That I can bring an end to my anxieties and fears.

That I can choose to see the good that is within me.

That I can decide just who I want to be.

Who do I want to be?

The girl that can make people laugh when all they want to do is cry,

The girl who is a great friend to everyone that walks by.

The girl who is loving, compassionate, and true,

The one full of happiness that can't help but be shared with you.

You see the thing that I love most about myself is not how I look,

The thing that I thought the enemy took 

It is indeed my heart that somehow I've managed to win back,

Even though it's been weathered, it is still in tact.

I'll ask one last time the question of the century.

The answer to which has surprised even me.

Who is it that I truly want to be?

Exactly who I am even with my flaws,

Even if walking by won't drop jaws,

Even if what I wear won't gather oohs and awes.

Because I love being me.

It's all I could ever want to be.

The most beautiful thing too see,

Is when they are just them and I am just me.

Simply living together in unity,

Never worrying what the other may think.
