Truly Be You
Take a breath and face the crowd
no one knows who you are now
A queen, a king, a wizard, a bee
you are who you chose to be
No one tells you that you have to be calm
No one tells you that you have to belong
No one tells you that what you say is wrong
No one tells you not to sing your song
The character you play is not you
You are someone completely new
The part you play has never been seen
It's something only you can dream
So let it out
Say your part
All of it comes from the heart
the anger, the sorrow, the passion, the joy-
it's a part of you that needs to be free
And when you leave,
and go back to being you,
You're changed-
You're happy,
and you let it all out
The stage is freedom
The stage is life
The stage is where you let it all out
The stage is where your dreams come true
The stage is where behind a chacter,
you can truly be you
