Who were you?
Before they broke your heart
Really, before they told you
You couldn't be yourself
Before they told you
You weren't enough

Remember that person?
That boy or girl you used to be
That child that just didn't care
That didn't mind what people were saying

Who were you?
Before society rejected you
And told you to change
The way you dressed the way you spoke the way you walked

Before that one thing that broke you
That destroyed you
That made you believe you weren't worth it

Who were you?
Remember that person?
Don't you miss that person
That feeling of being free
And living carelessly

Who were you?
No! Who are you-
β€˜cos you're still that person
And this is your story
You control this allegory

So stop remembering that person
and start Β being that person

Because who are you?
You're you and only you
