I Need To Be Me
I Need To Be Me
There is a lot of darkness in me,
But I need to be me
I cannot fathom my inner self if I change to be your version of me
Unless I see the chaos that is me, how can I know what should change in me?
You see, first what is inside of me needs to come out and reveal itself to me
And once that happens I can use the arsenal to tackle the crumpled me
And crease by crease the operation has to be performed on me
Ironing out the folds that have through the years hardened me
Unfolding the forlorn wounds which by now should have left hold of me
tify">Cleaning and renewing the thoughts which daily dwell inside of me
How can I do that unless I know whether good or bad resides in me
Let me make mistakes and fall down the drain so I am known to me
Let me do it when I am young when no responsibility is attached to me
Let me finish my share of shameful suffering when no soul depends on me
Let me live my regrets and falter and get up and falter and get up for the life of me
Let me be me, not a well behaved fake, so that when I know all that is me
The Creator can pick up the broken shards that once were me
And make the finest and glorious and most honorable Pottery
