I Love You for Being You
I know you think I don’t know you That the version I see is a lie That you can never change or grow No matter how hard you try
I know you think I don’t know you That the version I see is a lie That you can never change or grow No matter how hard you try
We're told all our life That the rain is miserable and dreary That no one really loves her Of her, we're supposed to be weary
You made a friend You grew close together Spending so much time living your lives with one another
When you make a choice some people may disagree others may not understand even the people you love
It’s hard to be you to be honest, be true when people want you to change when they only see you as strange
I want to open up To unleash my soul Let them flow freely But I'm not sure how
Sometimes You get swallowed by sadness Dragged down by loneliness And that's okay
There will always be people who want you to be something different Something that you are not Something that you don’t want to be
Not long ago You were always alone And no matter how you tried Nothing seemed to change that
People have always wanted you to be exactly one certain way They didn’t want you to change day after day after day
