Let Me Be Me

This is actually a song that I wrote.

Let Me Be Me

 

 

So many expectation,

Gotta live by my reputation.

What to do and who to be,

Why can’t  they let me be me.

 

They Stereotype for the way I dress,

But I’m not looking to impress.

I’m tired of sticking to the regulations,

On what to do and who to be.

They’re gonna start letting me be me.

 

 

 

Because I’m not going to be another fantasy

They’re not gonna live their lives through me.

I’m not going to be stuck in yesterday,

Watching all my dreams slip away.

 

Too many times I’ve worn my heart on my sleeve

Too many times I’ve needed superman to rescue me

Too many nights I’ve lied awake trying to undo my past mistakes!

What to do, who to be, It’s my time so let me be me!

You said in one a review of one of my poems you couldn't write poetry. THis is poetry and it's good. Great Job!

This is the ONE and ONLY song I have ever written, lol. I'm pretty sure it was becuase I couldn't figure what key to put it in. Thanks, I'm glad you like it better than my stories lol.

It sounds like a teenager talking. Very good, and following regulations everyday is very depressing.

Yeah I wrote it when I was 14 or something like that. Which was a long time ago!! I don't mind regulations now Lol. I've grown up a lot in seven years.
