lyrics
VERSE:
It's not easy to unlearn
All the ways you've learnt to hold yourself
So you don't rock the boat,
And be too little or too much for anyone to handle.
It's not easy to ignore
All the boxes that they tell you that you have to fit in neatly,
And the urge to make your personality palatable
to everyone that meets you.
INTERLUDE:
It's not easy, it's not easy
VERSE 2:
It's not easy to be sure
of all the choices that you've made,
and to believe that the best is yet to come
To hold on to your tiny grain of faith
that flounders in the sea of your uncertainty
INTERLUDE:
It's not easy, one day at a time my friend
It's not easy, but it's worth it all in the end
CHORUS:
And know that it's okay to take up space, to carve a new path
To know yourself, to make mistakes, to take the long way around
It's okay to change, to grow, to doubt
To speak up, to say 'I don't know”
To trust your gut, to wait, to hope
To go against, or go with the flow
Know that it's okay, it's okay to be you
It's okay to be you
OUTRO:
It's not easy to be human
But I see you, and you're marvellous
