They Said I Could Be Anything When I Grew Up, But I Was Already A Girl (I'm Living Proof)

I still can't see past next week
It feels like an eternity and I
Can't keep waiting up
Life's for living 'til we're dead
But I'm not finished writing yet and I
Hope you're keeping up
I can't keep saying "it'll be next year"

(I wanna be "me" today)
Fuck your opinion - I'm not listening
Cause I won't let those words take hold of me
I'm not afraid to be me (fuck, if I'm not a girl, then what gives you the right to tell me)
Fuck your opinion - I'm not listening
Cause I'm done being afraid to reach my peak
I'm not afraid to be me
I'm not afraid to be me

I still can't see past next week
I'd even fear it in my sleep and I
Can't keep waking up
Dreams are meant to be lived out
No, I won't let you shape my doubts and I
Won't stop looking up
I can't keep saying "it'll be next year"

There's always so damn much to fear
There's always something creeping near
And I can't wait inside my room forever clutching my own sides

There's always someone making fun
There's always some fuck with a gun
But I can't let that stop me living for the first time in my life

(I'm not afraid to be me) Fuck your gender roles, fuck biology
(I'm not afraid to be me) I know that I'm a girl, don't need to "wait and see"
(I'm not afraid to be me) 'Cause I'm not done yet, I'm just at the start
(I'm not afraid to be me) I'll keep on writing 'til I empty out my heart

[Yeah, in case you hadn't noticed, I'm a fucking girl - deal with it.]
