One day I will be
The very best of me
And words will just be words
And the things they say won’t affect me
I will be free
From the chains constructed with hatred and pain
I will rise above the hands that try to pull me down
And my screams will outnumber the thousands of whispers taunting me
I will be me and I can finally be free
No more will the tears fall down face and show my weakness
No more will I tremble at their voices
No more will I be pushed and pulled and thrown away
I will stand tall
I will be proud
I’ll let my face show it all
I am me and forever will I be
I may not be that skinny
And my teeth aren't pearly white
But I’m beautiful inside and that’s what shines through
One day I will be free and I can finally be just me
