Spent 24 years of my life,
Wondering who I really am,
I took the answers that the world, the society, feeds me with
I am but a product of people's expectations..........
Where is my true self?
That carefree self that fearlessly said to itself, "I am who I am"
I need it, dear Lord, I need it......
Tired and torn from conforming...
I want to learn with the mind of that true self,
I want to wear as what the true self loves,
I want to talk as what that true self will talk
I want to sing songs that the true self really loves,
I want to love with that true heart
Again....
Enough hiding, enough faking, enough lies.......
People-pleaser, Great Pretender, out you go
Me, the real me...take your place...
I don't expect you to understand, I don't expect you to accept,
I just don't want your stoning, your persecution, your condemnation,
Stop stealing my soul
"Lord, teach me to be in the World but not of the World......."
