I am the ME I always wanted to be

I was down in the dumps, had no where else to go
It was almost like breathing , feeling low
With the world against me, I had no place to hide
So much for "being yourself", they would chide

When will I be the ME I always wanted to be..

Will try till I die, I screamed
I prayed - I should be redeemed
One day I will... I would dream
The day never came, my eyes lost their gleam

When will I be the ME I always wanted to be..


Lost out on time, thinking one day I would be ME
Peace will then set in and let me free
Looked around the world to discover ME
Until I heard the faint plea
A voice that I had earlier dismissed
I held my breath and clenched my fist

I am here, it said, look inside
Explore the "YOU", dormant and tied

You are already what you want to be..

Blinded I was, for ignorance was bliss
While discovering me, I went amiss
How long have I been this way, I thought
How long have I fought
This voice I heard time and again
Turned deaf ears, for a pride I was to regain
As I look into the mirror now, all I can see

I am the ME I always wanted to be..

I live my life on my terms

Oh yeah baby! my life affirms

Its my rules and my game

All the obstacles, I shall tame

I am the ME I always wanted to be..

Come rain, come shine

Enough of all the cries and whine

Taking charge of things

Turning blizzards to springs

I am the ME I always wanted to be..

I am beautiful, the way I am

Need no one to confirm that - Adam, Joe or Sam!

I climb mountains that earlier seemed daunting to climb

I conquer the peaks, it is now my time

I sail through the savage sea

What can it do, but just let me be!

As the wind blows through my hair

I know I have won this battle fair and square

With the accusers squashed and fear diminished

Time for some business unfinished

I am liberated, I am free

I am the ME I always wanted to be..
