Growing up I knew I was different,

Growing up I wanted to fit in,

Growing up I tried to be the person everyone wanted me to be,

Growing up I was shy,

Growing up I wasn't even the lest bit confident in myself,

Growing up I wasn't who I wanted to be,

Growing up I was filled with anger and pain,

Growing up I was ashamed of who I was making myself be but now....

Now I've grown up!

I'm me,

I'm confident,

I'm strong,

I'm happy,

I'm independent,

I'm everything I want to be without others input on who I am,

I'm not the kind of person who cares what others think anymore,

I'm just myself and that's good enough to me!
