【Intro】
I know the dark
I’ve lived inside it
They told me
Hide it well
Said I was broken
Said I was wrong
Like that was reason
Enough
⸻
【Verse 1】
Cover it up
Tone it down
Be something
They can stand
Too loud, too much
Too different
They always
Had a plan
They said
No one will love you like this
No place
For what you are
⸻
【Pre-Chorus】
But I’m still here
Still breathing
Still standing
⸻
【Hook】
Look at me
This is me
Scarred and breathing
On my feet
Not your shame
Not your mistake
I am here
I didn’t break
⸻
【Instrumental Break】
⸻
【Verse 2】
Words like knives
Hit my skin
Over and
Over again
Fire away
Say it loud
I’m not drowning
In it now
You tried to erase me
Turn me to dust
But I learned
How to trust myself
⸻
【Pre-Chorus 2】
I don’t need permission
To exist
⸻
【Hook 2】
Look at me
I won’t hide
I’m not scared
To be seen alive
No apologies
No disguise
This is me
Open eyes
⸻
【Bridge】
These scars
Aren’t weakness
They’re proof
I stayed
⸻
【Final Hook】
Look at me
Hear my name
I walked through fire
I stayed the same
Brave and bruised
Still standing tall
This is me
This is all
Look at me
This is me
⸻
【Outro】
I’m not leaving
I’m not small
I’m right here
That’s all
