Let me be myself,
Not a copy of anyone else.
I am shy for no reason,
Whether it is summer, winter or any other season.
I am scared of animals, humans and what not,
I am that awful person in the room whom you can easily spot.

But please!
Let me be myself,
Not a copy of anyone else.
Sometimes, I am totally weird,
And that's the reason I always want to disappear.
I know I am not that perfect,
But I am not a thing to be neglect.
All I want is attention, love and affection,
But all I receive is ignorance due to my looks and complexion.

Let me be myself,
Not a copy of anyone else.
I have been super bullied since my childhood,
And this made me think that I am not at all good.
Criticism is something which I've faced almost everytime,
I've often cried for being a victim of such crime.

But please!
Let me be myself,
Not a copy of anyone else.
A very few people appreciate me and accept me the way I am,
They've all helped me a lot in understanding that all these criticism things were just a scam.
Thanks to them! Now I've stopped feeling negative and stopped thinking that everything is tough,
And I've started realising that I am such a cute stuff.  :)
I CHOOSE TO BE MYSELF, NOT A COPY OF ANYONE ELSE.
