Verse 1:
I don't wanna waste another tear
I don't wanna live my life in fear
And I don't wanna deny who I am
Cause I'm aware of the things that I can
I just continue with my life

Chorus:
I don't wanna live my life in fear
And be someone I'm not
I don't wanna hide another year
I'm okay with what I've got
Cause where I've been and what I've done
Is who I am today
It's made me strong enough to say
I'll be who I am

Verse 2:
You have spent your life thinking I'm weird
Just because my life's not engineered
But I don't need a masterplan you see
I have the courage to be me
I just continue with my life

Chorus:
I don't wanna live my life in fear
And be someone I'm not
I don't wanna hide another year
I'm okay with what I've got

Middle 8:
I could spend a thousand years singing this song
Guess that I don't impress you but what is wrong

Key change:

With being yourself and accepting who you are
Look at the past - someone likes you how you are
Cause where you've been and what you've done
Is who you are today
It can make you strong enough to say:
I'll be who I am
