Stop running away from yourself.
You act like being yourself is such a crime.
You just sit there while your feelings are eating you alive.
Just let it all out, and tell the world you’ve had enough.
Then maybe life won’t seem so tough!
Critics may break or beat you down, but all you have to say is...
I’m ready to be me now.
