Who Am I
Who Am I?
I am me
Not everything I want to be
Sometimes I feel I have to be
A person who isn’t me
Because of the life I live
I feel I have to give
More of myself than needed
Although this sounds conceded
I’m not ashamed to repeat it
Who I am
Is not me
Where can I be?
Oh my God I’ve lost myself
But found so many others
I feel like I’m hiding from myself
Am I undercover?
People say be yourself
But how can I be
When I don’t know if myself is truly me
