They say be yourself but then they turn around and judge
Why hurt a bird’s wings when it just wants to fly for fun
Don’t tell me to change who I am
Don’t tell me I don’t understand
I have finally figured out myself
And it’s been such a long time
They say don’t give up
Then they criticize your best
This bird has flown away to tend to a different nest
Don’t tell me to change who I am
Don’t tell me I don’t understand
I have finally figured out myself
And it’s been such a long time
Don’t tell me to change who I am
Don’t tell me I don’t understand
I have finally figured out myself
And it’s been such a long time
