I'm just.... me

How can I win your hearts anew?
How can I be the person you want me to be?
Should I give up my dreams just to please you?
Should I mourn so that you can be happy?

I didn’t want to fight back…
I didn’t want to shout out loud
But how long should I keep back?
How long should I gulp down?

All I want is freedom
All I want is you to hear me
for once, at least

Would you just let me be…
whoever I wanna be?
Would you just let me do…
whatever I wanna do?
Would you just let me live…
the way I want to live?
Would you just let me love you…
instead of pushing me away…

I hope I have been a good daughter to you.
But now, I'm taking a step back...
I’m so sorry.
