I Am... A Different Person


A few years back quiet and shy

Now I'm here and I've changed, no lie

I used to not speak up or shout out

But now I'm told I can never shut up

Blasts from the past are always surprised to see

How my voice went from hidden to free

I used to conform

Now I don't agree with the norm

I don't even know how

But I am happy with the person I am now
