"It's just a phase"
Or is it?
My labels have changed many times
Yes, that is true
That doesn't mean it's a phase
Life is a journey
And discovering yourself takes time
There're twists and turns and backtracking
"Maybe I'm this label"
"No, maybe I'm this"
The journey may be long
But it's never without purpose
Your journey is valid
My journey is valid
I am Liam
And that is my truth
Say my name, my real name
For that is who I am
Not the version in your head
I am me
I am Liam
Respect it or leave
Be who you are
And don't let anyone question it
You are you
Never change to fit someone else's expectations
You are not a Build-a-Bear
