I’m not perfect

[INTRO]
Oh, they paint a picture, like a brand-new frame,
Expectations rise, but it feels like a game,
I'm not your canvas, I’m a storm in disguise,
Just trying to be real, don’t need to apologize.
[VERSE 1]
They look at me and see a shining star,
But inside I'm fighting battles, waging wars from afar,
I stumble and I fall, I break, and I mend,
But don't you understand? I'm just me, my friend.
[CHORUS]
Why does everyone want me to shine like gold?
I'm the total opposite, breaking out of the mold,
Don't put me on display, I’m a wild card at best,
Just let me breathe, let me pass this test.
[VERSE 2]
They whisper in the shadows, "Can’t you be more bright?"
But the truth is blurry, it’s a constant fight,
I wear my imperfections like a badge of pride,
Life’s not a fairytale, can’t you see what’s inside?
[CHORUS]
Why does everyone want me to shine like gold?
I'm the total opposite, breaking out of the mold,
Don’t put me on display, I’m a wild card at best,
Just let me breathe, let me pass this test.
[BRIDGE]
I’m not a puppet dancing on your strings,
Don’t need your approval, don’t need your wings,
I’ll take my own road, I’ll find my own light,
Embrace every shadow, make peace with the night.
[CHORUS]
Why does everyone want me to shine like gold?
I'm the total opposite, breaking out of the mold,
Don’t put me on display, I’m a wild card at best,
Just let me breathe, let me pass this test.
[HOOK]
Perfect ain't my name, it’s too much to bear,
Authenticity flows like a breath of fresh air,
So I’ll take the stage with my flaws on parade,
In a world full of filters, I’ll never be afraid.
[OUTRO]
So hold your expectations, throw them to the sky,
I’m proudly imperfect, and that’s how I fly,
I’ll spread my wings wide, fly free and connect,
In this human experience, it's love I’ll protect.
