I'm Just Me Lyrics

I've been so mad lately

Mostly at myself

For feeling so incompetent

I have declining mental health

I've been so bad lately

At everything I do

I can't reach my high expectations

That I try to live up to

I've been so jealous lately

Mostly of my friends

Who I think are better than me

'Cause they keep up with all the trends

I've been so scared lately

That they will all find out

That I'm actually a loser

Filled with crippling self-doubt

I believe I won't be liked

Unless I'm perfect to a T

But needing to be right all the time

Gives me anxiety

I struggle to be human

Because in reality

I don't feel like I'm good enough

'Cause I'm just me

I'm just me

I've been in love lately

With anyone who can

Make me feel like an imposter

Like they're better than I am

I've been so hurt lately

By the things I say to me

I know I should be kinder

And other impossibilities

I believe I won't be liked

Unless I'm perfect to a T

But needing to be right all the time

Gives me anxiety

I struggle to be human

Because in reality

I try to be an inspiration

But I'm just me

I'm just me

I know we are all different

And good in our own ways

But my appreciation falls short

When I give myself praise

I see all of my struggles

And though I know you have them too

I always find myself thinking,

Man, they look better on you

I've been trying lately

To love myself some more

And focus on my qualities

That I truly do adore

I've been learning lately

You don't have to be the best

To be valid and valuable

And experience success

So maybe I don't have to be

Perfect to a T

And maybe I don't have to have

So much anxiety

It's hard to be a human

But I'm trying to believe

This world might be a better place

If I'm just me

I'm just me

I'm just me
