Being Me
[Verse 1]
I'm so used to runnin' from my feelings if it's negative
Yeah, it's repetitive, but I should probably stay with it
Everybody 'round me sayin' that they're happy and complacent
Like, am I really the only one that's chasin' it?
Chasin' it, embracin' it
Instead of bottles on the table to replace it with
I need some time from my mind, need some space from it, uh

[Pre-Chorus]
I've always been told
When you're feelin' low, don't let it show
But as I'm gettin' older
I'm lettin' go what I used to know

[Chorus]
I've been climbin', nine-to-fivin'
Tryin' to rest in peace
Tell me, whеre's the silver lining? I can't find it
If I can't sleep
Strappеd into this roller coaster, when it's over
I'm still feelin' lonely
There's no easy way to say this
Guess I need to be okay with bein' me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh (Bein' me)
[Verse 2]
Ever since I started lookin' in the mirror
It killed the fear of never knowin' if I'll ever get a hold of it
I'm not sayin' that it's easy, but believe me
Once you're pointed in the right direction, you can finally roll with it
Rolled with it, I noticed it
When I finally hit the floor and didn't croak from it
Now I'm closer to the life that I'm supposed to live, uh, uh

[Chorus]
I've been climbin', nine-to-fivin'
Tryin' to rest in peace
Tell me where's the silver linin'? I can't find it
If I can't sleep
Strapped into this roller coaster, when it's over
I'm still feelin' lonely
There's no easy way to say this
Guess I need to be okay with bein' me

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh (Bein' me)
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh
Guess I need to be okay with bein' me (Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, oh-oh)

[Outro]
I've always been told
When you're feelin' low, don't let it show
But as I'm gettin' older
I'm lettin' go what I used to know
