"We are always feeling every emotion, but only a few are screaming."


Verse 1:
I look in the mirror every day,
Wonder who I am,
Who am I gonna be,
Sometimes my reflection is blurry,
But I can still see right through to me,
I am me,
I am strong,
I will get through this on my own,
I am okay,
I am strong,
Some may say I am weak,
But now I know,
They are wrong,
I am strong,
I was right all along,
Think I’m weak?
Watch me as I fly up to the sky,
Like a butterfly,
I will climb,
I will get where I want to go,
I am not weak,
I have not peaked,
I am still here and ready to shine.

Verse 2:
Watch me,
Watch me as I take off,
On a plane,
To California,
Watch me,
Watch me,
I am a butterfly,
Flying straight through my fears,
I don’t lie,
I write them away,
Because I am here,
And ready to escape to the world of not feeling inferior anymore,
I closed that door,
I am confident again,
Ready to take off,
On this plane,
Of knowing where I want to be,
New York,
Writing my way into the big leagues,
New York,
Take me in,
I am gonna write a way you have never seen before.

Chorus:
I am not weak,
I will succeed,
Watch me,
Watch me,
As I fly,
Up to the sky,
Oh watch me,
I may not be perfect,
But I am not weak,
I am so not weak,
I am going to write my way into the big leagues,
Try to stop me,
Watch me fly,
I am taking,
Taking off,
soaring through the sky like a butterfly,
I will let my dream take me where I want to go,
Watch me through your window,
As I soar.

Verse 3:

No more closing doors,
my talent is a roar,
gonna roar at your feet,
until you open the door,
Give me a chance,
let me in,
I am strong,
Not worried about fitting in anymore,
I am strong,
I am weak,
do not go closing doors,
I am me.

Chorus:
I am not weak,
I will succeed,
Watch me,
watch me,
As I fly,
Up to the sky,
Oh watch me<
I amy not be perfect,
But I am not weak,
I am so not weak,
I am going to write my way into the big leagues,
Try to stop me,
Watch me fly,
I am taking,
taking off,
Soaring through the sky,
Like a butterfly,
I will let my dream take me to whee I want to go,
Woah.

Verse 4:
I am strong,
I am me,
Every step is a new opportunity,
For me,
I am about to write my way into the big leagues,
Watch me soar.
