Still me

Title: “Still Me”

(Verse 1)

Late nights, stare at the ceilin’

Thoughts loud, can’t hide this feelin’

Tryna be everything they needed

But somehow I still ended up bleedin’

Said I’d be better, I meant it

Gave my heart, they still don’t get it

Every role, I played my part

Still feel like I fall apart

(Pre-Chorus)

Every time I look inside

All I see is where I lied

To myself, sayin’ I’m fine

But I’m runnin’ outta tries

(Chorus)

I failed as a daughter, I know

I failed as a sister, it shows

I failed every friend that got close

And I hate that the truth hurts the most

I failed in love, let it go

School got me feelin’ so low

Even God probably tired of me

At least that’s how it feels to me

But I’m still me… yeah

I’m still me… yeah

Even if I’m broken, I’m still me

(Verse 2)

Mirror don’t like me lately

Talk back like “you crazy”

Sayin’ I ain’t worth savin’

That voice gettin’ hard to escape it

But hold on… wait

Maybe I’m just human, I make mistakes

Carryin’ weight that ain’t mine to take

Tryna be perfect, that’s my mistake

(Pre-Chorus)

What if I don’t gotta be

Everything they want from me?

What if I just breathe, just be

And let myself heal slowly

(Chorus)

I ain’t the worst daughter, no

I’m just learnin’ as I go

I ain’t the worst friend you know

I just got wounds I don’t show

Love didn’t work, that’s okay

Grades don’t decide my place

And God still lookin’ at me

Like I’m more than what I see

I’m still me… yeah

I’m still me… yeah

Even when I’m fallin’, I’m still me

(Bridge)

I’m tired of carryin’ shame that ain’t mine

Tired of sayin’ sorry for just bein’ alive

Maybe I bend, but I don’t break

Maybe I’m more than my mistakes

(Outro)

So if I failed… I’ll try again

Not the same girl I was back then

Yeah I got scars, yeah I got pain

But I’m still standin’ through the rain

I’m still me…

And maybe that’s enough
