True to Me

[Verse 1] I walk these streets, so different, so alone, In a town where the faces feel like stone. They tower above, with eyes that never see, The quiet strength inside of me. [Chorus] But I’m standing tall, though they don’t understand, In this place where I don’t quite fit in. They want to change me, make me like them, But I’ll hold on, I’ll stay who I am. [Verse 2] They whisper words, try to bend my mind, Telling me to leave my true self behind. But I’ve got a light, though my skin is pale, A spirit so strong, it’ll never fail. [Chorus] But I’m standing tall, though they don’t understand, In this place where I don’t quite fit in. They want to change me, make me like them, But I’ll hold on, I’ll stay who I am. [Bridge] I see the beauty in being alone, In the echoes of a place unknown. Though I may be small, though I may be few, There’s a world inside me they never knew. [Chorus] But I’m standing tall, though they don’t understand, In this place where I don’t quite fit in. They want to change me, make me like them, But I’ll hold on, I’ll stay who I am. [Outro] So let them talk, let them stare, I’ll be the light in the shadowed air. Different, alone, but never afraid, In this town of giants, my mark is made.
