Can you hear me now
I am shouting from the rooftops out loud
I am unashamed
I'm no longer in the shadows, I stand proud
But you still don't see
I'm who I'm meant to be
And I've found myself in me
I won't go back to who I was
Won't pretend to be somebody else again
To impress a crowd to fit in
I won't go back to who I was
Won't trade my happiness for a status, forget it
No prize would ever be worth it
Can you see me now
My life is blessed why don't you open your eyes
Never before have I
Ever experienced a love like this, why don't you realize
That you still don't see
I'm who I'm meant to be
And I've found myself in me
I won't go back to who I was
Won't pretend to be somebody else again
To impress a crowd to fit in
I won't go back to who I was
Won't trade my happiness for a status, forget it
No prize would ever be worth it
And as I threw my remaining belongings
In the trunk of my car
I realized it went that far
And as I drove away from what once I called home
I realized, I didn't have another name for it
But I hold on, to the hope that one day
You'll see me, without the mask
That you've grown so fond of
I won't go back to who I was
Won't pretend to be somebody else again
To impress a crowd to fit in
I won't go back to who I was
Won't trade my happiness for a status, forget it
No prize would ever be worth it
I won't go back to who I was
Won't pretend to be somebody else again
To impress a crowd to fit in
I won't go back to who I was
Won't trade my happiness for a status, forget it
No prize would ever be worth it
