Unbound

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've played your game for far too long
Wearing masks that don't belong
Following rules I didn't choose
Got nothing left to lose
[Pre-chorus 1]
Every step they want me to take
Every move, it feels so fake
Time to rip this script apart
Listen to my heart
[Chorus]
Done playing pretend, this is the real damn me
Breaking every rule they set to keep me down, you'll see
(Oh-oh, you'll see)
No more acting nice, now I'm breaking free
This is who I am, and who I'm gonna be
(Oh-oh, gonna be)
The real damn me
[Verse 2]
They drew the lines, I crossed them all
Built up walls just to watch them fall
Their perfect plan's going up in flames
Not playing their games
[Pre-chorus 2]
Every role they made me rehearse
Every cage just getting worse
Watch me tear it all away
This is my damn day
[Chorus]
Done playing pretend, this is the real damn me
Breaking every rule they set to keep me down, you'll see
(Oh-oh, you'll see)
No more acting nice, now I'm breaking free
This is who I am, and who I'm gonna be
(Oh-oh, gonna be)
The real damn me
[Bridge]
They said "stay quiet, know your place"
Well fuck that noise, I'm making space
For the real me
[Strong build-up]
The real me!
[Chorus - Final]
Done playing pretend, this is the real damn me
Breaking every rule they set to keep me down, you'll see
(Oh-oh, you'll see)
No more acting nice, now I'm breaking free
This is who I am, and who I'm gonna be
(Oh-oh, gonna be)
The real damn me
