To all those who almost made me believe that being me wasn't good enough...

Being ME...

To my face you show the best of you

But that is not how it's behind my back

To me you say I'm good to go

Behind me, all that I lack

To my face you say that all is right

To others you just show all my flaws

Whatever I do, you find wrong

It rips me down just like sharp claws.

I always show me as I am

Never do I be something I'm not

I never hold back anything

I show all the cards that I have got.

Is being frank that much of a crime?

Why punish me for being free?

to speak my heart out if it's wrong

It's truly wrong to just be Me.

But though you try to bring me down

Don't know why but that's what you do

I continue being frank and free

For that's the me that is true.

Go on, be bad, do all you can

If you want, tell the others too

Tear me down a thousand times

I'll bring me up fresh, anew!
