Right for Me

I don’t want to be anyone but who I want to be.
The life I live and the road I travel is up to me.

Everyone in my life tried to have a say about which way I go.
Its like no one around can hear me yell no.

I know who I am deep inside my heart,
But it’s so hard to stand up,
And tell the world,
And those around and close to me,
That I’ve been acting like someone I’m not.

I’m not a little girl anymore,
So why should I live like I am one?

No one needs to tell me what to believe,
I know what’s right for me.

So just because I’m not like you,
And you’re older,
You think it gives you the right to make me choose.

Well I’ve got some serious news,
That I’m ready to let loose.

I know who I am,
Who I want to be,
Where I want to go,
And everything I’ve got to do.
I’ve searched far and wide,
And have looked deep down inside.

I found my faith,
That I thought I had lost,
And realized there’s not one thing that I cannot have or do.

It may not be right for you,
Or anyone else,
But I’m tired of trying to live up to standards,
I did not set for myself.

I know in my heart I am right,
And that’s all I need to have the strength to fight.

My faith has been built back up,
After a long struggle and need of help.

There’s no more pretend,
I’ll tell you who I am,
And I don’t care if you give a damn.

Your words can’t hurt me,
I won’t let them inside,
I won’t allow them to make me die.

It’s my life to live,
It shouldn’t be lie,
And as much as I try to deny,
I know what I feel inside.

Along the way to discover who I really am,
I found what I want in life,
And that’s to be completely free,
And live my life as I please.

A/N: Hey everyone! Sorry this one is really long. I wrote it one night that I decided I was tired of dealing with everyone and what they wanted from me. But I wrote this when I was actually with someone, so I had to go back and change it a little bit. I think its still good, even without the references to my baby being by my side. I just didn’t want to leave that in there, because even without my baby, as hard as it may be, I’m still going to try to be the real me to the world. I hope you like it. Please Review!!! THANKS!!!
