Me
by Amanda E. Rogers

I know there's a truth to be conquered.
And I know there are lies in this world.
I know there's reality to face here.
But there's one thing I'm sure you ain't heard.

I'm me- and that's who I will stay.
I'm me- I can't make 'me' go away.
I'm me- and there's no one to blame.
I'm me- the one who won't cower in shame.
I'm me- in this world of regrets.
I'm me- 'cause it's who I do best.
I'm me- have you anything to say?
I'm me- that's how they want me to stay.

I'm sure I'll face it down the road.
This thing called 'fear' is vicious, so I'm told.
You'll see me now, and not see my face.
But I see you, so here's a little taste.

I'm me- and that's who I will stay.
I'm me- I can't make 'me' go away.
I'm me- and there's no one to blame.
I'm me- the one who won't cower in shame.
I'm me- in this world of regrets.
I'm me- 'cause it's who I do best.
I'm me- have you anything to say?
I'm me- that's how they want me to stay.

Now, this venture called life has it's days.
I hear that, when you see through the haze.
You catch a glimpse of how it's to be.
But, please, don't blame these troubled times on me.

I'm me- and that's who I will stay.
I'm me- I can't make 'me' go away.
I'm me- and there's no one to blame.
I'm me- the one who won't cower in shame.
I'm me- in this world of regrets.
I'm me- 'cause it's who I do best.
I'm me- have you anything to say?
I'm me- that's how they want me to stay.

If you carry your heart and show who you are.
You may make it through, and shine like your bright star.
You just listen to the soft voice in your head.
'Cause you may sound like me, and me like you instead.

I'm me- and that's who I will stay.
I'm me- I can't make 'me' go away.
I'm me- and there's no one to blame.
I'm me- the one who won't cower in shame.
I'm me- in this world of regrets.
I'm me- 'cause it's who I do best.
I'm me- have you anything to say?
I'm me- that's how they want me to stay.

But you have faith in dreams, and love tonight.
And eventually, all you want will be in sight.

Yes, me. I think that's who'll I'll stay...
