Real

Verse 1
I...am what I am
I’m super fortified hundred proof girl w/a band
and I’m a velveteen rabbit made of steel w/a plan
I’m not your seventeen girl but it’s not worth a can
of worms, I’m not your beauty queen
I’m not the girl in glamour magazine
I’m not running for miss popularity
cause I won’t be what I can’t be

Chorus
but I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
and I will find my way to heal
and I will find my voice my stand

Verse 2
I am who I am
I am woman hear me roar and I am salt, I am sand
a million starfish stranded, landed, I’ll throw back what I can
I’ll save the planet, change the world, I’ll make a one girl stand
I’ve got better things to do than be shown off
I won’t be the doll you’ll lock up in a box
don’t expect me to be anything I’m not
cause I won’t be what I can’t be

Chorus
but I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
and I will find my way to heal
and I will find my voice my stand

approval is your sword
popularity your crown
but I’m not one of your subjects, you can’t bring me down
you say I lose your approval if I’m not cool like you
well, here’s a newsflash for you-I’ve got nothing to lose
your laughter is hollow because I don’t care
you look down at me, but I’m not there
I’ve got nothing to prove and nothing to lose
nothing to prove and nothing to lose

Chorus
but I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
and I will find my way to heal
and I will find my voice my stand

and I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
and I will find my way to heal
and I will find my voice my stand


and if I never find a place, that I can call my own,
I would will tried, I would’ve be free
I’ll be alive as long as I’m trying to be me,
as long as I’m still trying to be me.
