LYRICS
I didn’t choose to be this way
This is just how I was made
All of the little traumas I picked up along the way
Made me who I am today
All of the places I’ve been
Including the ones I never want to go back to again
They made me who I am
And stronger than
The person that I was back then
So I take it one day at a time
I’ve got time
I don’t mind
I’m finding better ways to be kind
Without losing my mind
And I am feeling fine
You see me the way you want to
But I’m not here to please you
And nothing that I ever do
Has anything to do with you
So you do you
And I’ll do me
I am exactly who I’m supposed to be
And what you call crazy
I call originality
So I take it one day at a time
I’ve got time
I don’t mind
I’m finding better ways to be kind
Without losing my mind
I’m finally ok with myself
Don’t want to be anybody else
It doesn’t stop the sadness but it helps
Yeah it helps
You see me the way you want to
But I’m not here to please you
And nothing that I ever do
Has anything to do with you
So you do you
And I’ll do me
I am exactly who I’m supposed to be
And what you call crazy
I call originality
