Song of Myself

By Rebecca Baczyk

Verse 1:
People always be tellin' me
Where I should go
Where I should be
Why cant they realize
That this is me inside
 
Chorus
Are you in my  brain?
Do you know  what it feels like
to see the rain?
Everyday,  every night.
This just  isn't right,
I am  me.
The girl in the mirror I see.
Take me as I am.
Or just let  me be.
I am me.
 
Verse 2:  
Some people get it wrong
Do you know it takes so long
I feel like  I'm in my room
with the walls just closing in
I feel like it'll be soon
Do you know the hurt that's been?
 
(Chorus)
 
Coda:
Why can't people see
there is more than what there seems to be
I'm done with being hurt
done being walked on
from here on out
I swear it's true
I am me.
