Let Me Be Me

V4.5-ALL

Verse 1 Everybody’s got a story, everybody’s got a say, A rule for how to live your days. They’re drawing lines where they don’t belong, Saying everything different from them is “wrong”. But I’ve been walking this road, doing what I can, Trying not to trip over someone else's plan. If I’m not hurting you, why do you care? There’s room for all of us everywhere. Pre-Chorus If it’s honest, if it’s true, If it ain’t hurting me or you-- Chorus Let me be me, let you be you, It’s really not that hard to do. If no one’s hurting, tell me why We keep drawing lines in the sky? Let life unfold, let people be free, Yeah that sounds quite alright to me. Verse 2 They talk real loud about how to behave, Like fear is something we’re born to save. They talk about “normal” like it’s written in stone, Then act surprised when we hold our own. But love don’t need a permission slip, And dispute isn’t solved with clenched-up fists. The world feels better when we breathe, When we just let each other be. Pre-Chorus You don’t get to write my name, I won’t play your stupid game. Chorus Let me be me, let you be you, It’s really not that hard to do. If no one’s hurting, tell me why We keep drawing lines in the sky? Let life unfold, let people be free, Yeah that sounds quite alright to me. Bridge We don’t need walls, we don’t need sides, No one wins when we divide. Maybe the answer’s been here all along, Just hear the message in this song... Final Chorus Let me be me, let you be you, There’s space enough for all our truths. If no one’s hurting, tell me why We keep drawing lines in the sky? Let life unfold, let people be free, Yeah that sounds quite alright to me. Outro Let life unfold, let people be free, Yeah that sounds quite alright to me.
