NOT RELATED - I Know Who I Am Lyrics

My darling child, there is no one who knows you better than your father and I, except
You
You and only you know how you truly identify
We loved you as our child, even long before your birth, to the person you are now and
Forever

We are always on your side, so there is no reason for you to hide
We will not judge who you are, ever
It's not a choice that we have, because no one knows their true orientation

They won't begin to know until their body and mind grow, and that will give them an
Indication
It's not just something one decides, it's just what comes from the inside
You have always been you, wearing an unwanted disguise, because of societal expectations

You hide who you are, for fear of abomination
We loved you as our child, even long before your birth, to the person you are now and
Forever
We are always on your side, so there is no reason for you to hide

We will not judge who you are, ever
We loved you as our child, even long before your birth, to the person you are now and
Forever
We are always on your side, so there is no reason for you to hide

We will not judge who you are, ever
It's not a choice that we have, because no one knows their true orientation
They won't begin to know until their body and mind grow, and that will give them an
Indication

It's not just something one decides, it's just what comes from the inside
You have always been you, wearing an unwanted disguise, because of societal expectations
You hide who you are, for fear of abomination
You are strength, you are courage, you are our pride, and our joy, and perfection

That will always and forever continue to be, no matter your gender direction
It's not a decision on yours to make, as to how you would like to be identified, because
There's very little doubt, as to why it's called coming out, because the real you is
Always inside

It's not a choice that we have, because no one knows their true orientation
They won't begin to know until their body and mind grow, and that will give them an
Indication
It's not just something one decides, it's just what comes from the inside

You have always been you, wearing an unwanted disguise, because of societal expectations
You hide who you are, for fear of abomination
