No More Pretending

[Verse 1] I used to smile when I wanted to scream I used to fit in when I wanted to dream Wore the right clothes, said the right lines But none of it ever really felt like mine [Chorus | Saxophone Solo | prominent | energetic | uplifting] No more pretending, no more hiding I’m done with the masks, I’m done with the lying This is who I am — take it or leave it I’m finally breathing, I’m finally living [Verse 2] I used to shrink so you’d feel tall I used to whisper when I wanted to call Kept my opinions locked in a drawer But not anymore — I’m not doing that anymore [Chorus | Saxophone Solo | prominent | energetic | uplifting] No more pretending, no more hiding I’m done with the masks, I’m done with the lying This is who I am — take it or leave it I’m finally breathing, I’m finally living [Verse 3] I don’t need your approval to exist I don’t need your rules to be missed I’m not here to be easy or polite I’m here to be loud, I’m here to be right [Chorus | Saxophone Solo | prominent | energetic | uplifting] No more pretending, no more hiding I’m done with the masks, I’m done with the lying This is who I am — take it or leave it I’m finally breathing, I’m finally living No more pretending…
