Me

Me

Some days are so hard 
I just have to restart 
Insecurities come at me left and right
All day long, it's a constant fight 

Without You I don't know who I am
Without You I could never understand 

Who am I? The girl with the mask
The only thing I'm trying to figure out is this task

Yet you see me as you made me 
One of a kind , beautiful kind 
Not a pretty face 
But an honest heart
That's exactly where you want me to start

You see what nobody sees 
You see the real me
The me I try to hide 
The me who'd rather live a lie

Unsure and always striving
For the perfect body, hair, and face
Unclear knowledge on who is driving 
The media wrapped in pretty lace

Deep inside is the girl you formed
The one inside my mother’s womb
My future You already know
It's real life not a TV show

Pain and trials helped shaped me
By your grace you saved me
I will be myself and not her
Who she is nobody is for sure

And I will be the real me 
The me you created me to be
Funny girl, quirky girl
With the honest heart 
The one who loves You 
That's exactly where I'll start
