They taught me early how to hide myself Fold the hunger, bite the tongue, stay small Said the flesh itself was evidence of my crime That wanting made me dirty after all I carried their taboos, a stone around the neck Tried to sand the edges till I disappeared I stand unashamed in my own skin No Longer Asking if I’m clean enough to live These desires are mine, This Passion is my own I need no blessing and I give none back Unashamed! Shame was never born inside myself It came in lessons dressed as love and law They drew the lines then sold me the eraser Told me freedom meant becoming pure But purity was just another cage And I have walked out through the door I can want I can refuse Both belong to me Both are Part of me Both are who I am Some nights the body sings its song Some nights it rests and asks for nothing more Neither path requires apology Neither path needs applause I am not a problem waiting to be fixed I am the answer that asks From the shadows where I used to wait For someone else’s voice to say “you may” I step into the light ready to perform I stand on this stage bare for all to see I just wish to have a good time I stand unashamed in my own skin No Longer Asking if I’m clean enough to live These desires are mine, This Passion is my own I need no blessing and I give none back Unashamed! I stand unashamed in my own skin Louder now, the old ways left behind These desires are mine, This Passion is my own I need no blessing and I give none back Unashamed Unashamed Unashamed I step into the light ready to perform I stand on this stage bare for all to see I just wish to have a good time full Album: https://suno.com/playlist/aaed1ed2-f877-4a0e-a74c-5c16708f0e6b
