Always the quiet one, but I wanna be loud Always the butt of the joke, so it's best

that I be the clown Don't open up, don't show no personality

I'll be the joke as long as they're laughing, soaking in my misery

Yeah, they'll be my friend

I'll act funny and be stupid

And say cool shit in my music But all I ever wanted was to be myself

Put on a happy face for you And be someone else so you think I'm cool

But all I ever wanted was to be myself But all I ever wanted was to be myself

I think I need the approval, cause I didn't get it from my parents

And I'll take the praise I get, cause I never really hear it

And when I don't, I don't think it's true I just wanna pursue my passion and achieve

my dreams But all I ever see is negativity

My mind's filled with hate, what's got into me

My mind's a tiny bit broken But please tell me I'm not hopeless

I'll say I'm done being like this But tomorrow I'll rip my baggage right open

I'll act funny and be stupid And say cool shit in my music

But all I ever wanted was to be myself Put on a happy face for you

And be someone else so you think I'm cool But all I ever wanted was to be myself

But all I ever wanted was to be myself Be myself, be myself, totally be myself

Be myself, be myself, totally be myself Be myself
