Let me be what I am,
Let me feel what I feel,
Stop worrying about what people will think,
If I do something good, or something bad.
I want to live my life,
I want to feel my feelings,
I don’t want to be too young for pain and love,
Or too old for games and fun.
Let me be me,
Stop controlling what I am,
I want to be free,
To escape from all your rules and commands.
Society stop talking about me,
Stop inventing fake rumors,
Believe in what I am,
Let me be myself at least for once.
