Finding Myself

Who am I today

It seems to change all the time

One minute I will be me

Only to change into who the world wants me to be

Cause how can I live up to the expectations of this place

And when will I speak up

And say that I’m not sure of where I’m heading

To all of you who have told me that I’ll make it one day

Sometimes I’m not so sure

Sometimes I run away from it

Sometimes I lose myself

I’m a stranger to me

Why’s it gotta be that the hardest thing for me

Is the fact that life’s so hard to read

The uncertainty

It makes me crazy

To the point where I can’t sleep

Cause how can I live up to the expectations of this place

And when will I speak up

And say that I’m not sure of where I’m heading

To all of you who have told me that I’ll make it one day

Sometimes I’m not so sure

Sometimes I run away from it

Sometimes I lose myself

I’m a stranger to me

And while I find myself in this life

Just bear with me as I try

To find where I fit in

In this sea of different places

There’s so many choices to make

How can I make the right one

With all these thoughts running through my head

Cause how can I live up to the expectations of this place

And the people I’m afraid I will let down

And when will I speak up and say that I’m not sure of where I’m heading

I can’t pick my feet up off the ground

And to all of you who have told me that I’ll make it one day

You’ve been with me since the beginning

But sometimes I’m not so sure

Sometimes I run away from it

But even through all the doubt

I’m gonna find myself
