This Is Who I Am - Tape Machines, Ella Faye

I’m thinking back on all those times

When I felt closed off from

All that I could become

Eager, but too scared to climb

Wanted to please my friends

But it felt like the end of myself

I was shut down

And all drained out

I was lost

So I had to change

Yeah, I shook off all the bad vibes

Cut me loose from the pettiness

They turned on me

But now I am perfectly free to be me

This is who I am

This is, this is who I am now

No matter what they’re saying

This is who I am

This is, this is who I am now (Oh)

They think that I have lost my mind

That I’m not being true

But thy don’t have a clue

'Cause this is m when I cut out

All of the shallowness

And everything I supress to fit in

In a small frame

But I won’t play your game anymore

So I had to change
