I used to be scared
Of people's stares
I used to care
Of people's thoughts
I used to tell myself
To mold my personality
To what others
wanted Of me
I could feel my real face
Slipping away from behind the mask
And after a while slowly
The mask would become me
And that wouldn't be the real one
There would be no me
Just another fake robot
Did I want that?
But after years I figured
People are gonna judge
Whatever I do
So guess I might as well
Just be me and if they
Can't accept that
Then let them judge
Cause I'm just gonna do me
Walking down the street
Letting my confidence
Be shown to the world
'cause right now
I don't care
I could feel my real face
Slipping away from behind the mask
And after a while slowly
The mask would become me
And that wouldn't be the real one
There would be no me
Just another fake robot
Did I want that?
But after years I figured
People are gonna judge
Whatever I do
So guess I might as well
Just be me and if they
Can't accept that
Then let them judge
Cause I'm just gonna do me
My head's on his shoulder as
We lay down on the grass
He said "Your brave to be you"
I looked up, letting vulnerability show
Even with all my imperfections
Do you truly love me?
"Yeah"
And after years I figured
People are gonna judge
Whatever I do
So guess I might as well
Just be me and if they
Can't accept that
Then let them judge
Cause I'm just gonna do me
