Becoming Me

[Verse] Born in a town where the cornfields grow, Where folks don't change and the rivers flow slow. I've been hiding in shadows, being what I'm not, Now it's time to rise and show all that I've got. [Verse 2] Mama and Daddy raised me up strong, Did their best to teach me right from wrong. But deep down inside there's a girl they couldn't see, It's time I let her out and finally be free. [Chorus] I'm becoming me, who I was born to be, Breaking free from chains, letting my soul breathe. It’s a winding road, and folks might talk, But I'm ready now to take this walk. [Verse 3] Down at the diner, where the old men sit, I'll face their stares, won't back down a bit. In my heart, I know what’s true, This is my life, I've gotta do what I need to. [Bridge] The nights were long, and the tears were real, But now I stand tall, and I start to heal. With a heart full of dreams and a spirit shining bright, I’ll face the world in a different light. [Chorus] I'm becoming me, who I was born to be, Breaking free from chains, letting my soul breathe. It’s a winding road, and folks might talk, But I'm ready now to take this walk.
