Let Me Be Me by Tung Hoang Lyrics

[Intro]
Through broken bones, over sticks and stones
Got my own way to go

[Verse 1]
Done with the overdone comparisons
No more people that need to
Invalidate my opinion
Anymore

[Verse 2]
Stop pretending to know where I should go
Second-guessing my every move
These voices and disturbing tones
I try to ignore

[Pre-Chorus 1]
People waiting for me to make a mistake
Waiting for my shell to break
I'm ripping off the chains
Holding me back in my cage
[Chorus]
While everybody has something to say
No one sees that I’m just afraid
Though I tried, I tried, I tried
And I'll try, I'll try, I’ll try
So let me be me
Let me be me

[Verse 3]
I'm a dreamer, an overthinking-kind
14 million possibilities
I'm going through, looking for a sign
Preparing me for every door

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Foreseeing what I can't plan
‘cause that's just the way I am
Creating more expectations as if I had
None already in my head

[Chorus]
While everybody has something to say
No one sees that I'm just afraid
Though I tried, I tried, I tried
And I'll try, I'll try, I’ll try
So let me be me
Let me be me
[Outro]
Through broken bones, over sticks and stones
Got my own way to go
