Trying to be perfect,
Hiding everything behind my mask,
You'll never know the pain
Or be able to understand.
I can't be what you want,
So let me be me.
I want to be free in this world.
Not bound by your ropes and ties.
My will is strong and I'm going to fight,
You can't hold me back much longer.
Give up, please, I don't want to hurt you.
I just want to be a good daughter.
Like a river always runs,
You'll always have my love.
But I want to be me-
Not a mini copy of you.
Let me fly away-
Stop holding down my wings,
I can get farther than you think-
Just let me be me.
