Be Who You Are

Be who you are

Nothing more and nothing less

Be who you are

Don't try to second-guess

You ain't gotta be the best

All you gotta do is

Be who you are

And you will find the very best in you

Woke up all alone in the night

And I don't know what to do

I light a candle, to try to handle

Another battle with the truth

All my insecurities are laughing at me too

Too old, too young, too dumb

To become who I thought I was meant to

On the end of my bed

Hanging over the edge

Playin' back in my head

What my momma had said

She said

"Be who you are

Nothing more and nothing less

Be who you are

Don't try to second-guess

You ain't gotta be the best

All you gotta do is

Be who you are

And you will find the very best in you

And you will find the very best"

Sometimes in the world, there's a fight

And it starts inside of me

Riding home on the bus

I was cussed at, just another ride for me

She said, "Don't you believe them"

She said, "Don't even see them"

She said, "There's no reason to hide any light in you"

On the end of my bed

Hanging over the edge

Playin' back in my head

What my momma had said

She said

"Be who you are

Nothing more and nothing less

Be who you are

Don't try to second-guess

You ain't gotta be the best

All you gotta do is

Be who you are

And you will find the very best

Be who you are

And you will find the very best

Be who you are

And you will find the very best in you

You will find the very best in you"
