I Guess I'll Be Me

I Guess I'll Be Me Before, When I was afraid to be me, I looked at others And tried to be a copy Mimic all their motions Repeat the same moves Maybe then I can Follow all their rules? I tried to not be so different,so lame But being a replica just wasn't the same! No matter how hard I would try All my hellos looked like goodbyes! My left was a little too right, my dark had too much light. All my stands were full of sitters My all alones had visitors! I learned following where others lead, Will never let your YOU be free! So I'll be the ‘You’ who was made exactly I won't let others' additions subtract me. I'll allow my no more's to be agains, I'll be just exactly who I am!
