I spend my life
Trying to do things right
But all I do is fall to my face, with my hands and my hips so many times
But then I learned
After being burnt
To get back up, push straight on, stop the tears, people move on

Well it´s alright to be myself
Now I´ve learned to stand
Well it´s okay to be just who I am
I´ve spent years really hatin´ me
Longing to be friends
Now I hope that you can understand
This is who I am

Now when life gets tough
I´m quick to hurry up
I run all day, I run through the night, I´ll break down walls, I´ll hit up high
I don´t care if I´m fat,
Or if you think my clothes are bad
Yet I can go to sleep at night, I´m a good person and I´ll get by-yyy

Well it´s alright to be myself
Now I´ve learned to stand
Well it´s okay to be just who I am
I´ve spent years really hatin´ me
Longing to be friends
Now I hope that you can understand
This is who I am

I need someone someone someone someone like me
You deserve deserve,deserve to have me
Cause our world keeps spinning
And you don´t try to turn it

Well it´s alright to be myself
Now I´ve learned to stand
Well it´s okay to be just who I am
I´ve spent years really hatin´ me
Longing to be friends
Now I hope that you can understand
This is who I am

Yeaaaaaaaaaaah, yeaah yeah
This is who I am
Ooh, take a breather this is who I a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-am
