[Verse 1] Hey, they call me cheeky Every single day It’s not that I don’t get it I choose it anyway All those boring rules Straight lines on the board I’d rather be a doodle Than fit where I’m supposed [Chorus] A little attitude feels right Speaking my mind, keeping it real tonight If I stay quiet Nobody knows How fast this heartbeat goes A little louder feels right Being disliked just adds some spice Rather be clever Than play it safe (Hey) I just wanna be myself ⸻ [Verse 2] “If you’d just behave yourself” I don’t need that guide I’d rather hear the whispers Than disappear inside A wink into the mirror Bold makeup on my face Even if they laugh at me I’ll live my truth today ⸻ [Chorus] A little attitude feels right Standing my ground, shining my light Instead of rumors I’ll trust my voice That’s my only choice Call me annoying I’ll rewrite Those boring pages of my life I’m done with being ordinary (No more) I’m letting go ⸻ [Bridge] Even if they call me selfish I’ll turn that into praise I’ve learned through all the scars How to protect what I love ⸻ [Final Chorus] A little attitude feels right Tomorrow I’ll keep speaking out “Be yourself” That’s our battle cry Even if I take the long way round Speaking my mind And smiling wide This very moment is the answer now Rather be clever Than play it safe (Hey) I just wanna be myself
