i've always been the kind of girl

that hid my face

so afraid to tell the world

what i've got to say

but i have this dream

right inside of me

i'm gonna let it show it's time

to let you know

it's to let you know

this is real

this is me

i'm e actly where i'm

supposed to be now

gonna let the light

shine on me

now i've found who i am

there's no way to hold it in

no more hidding who i wanna be

this is me

do you know what it's like

to feel so in the dark

to dream about a life

where you're the shining star

even though it seems

like it's too far away

i have to believe in myself

it's the only way

this is real

this is me

i'm e actly where i'm

supposed to be now

gonna let the light

shine on me

now i've found who i am

there's no way to hold it in

no more hidding who i wanna be

this is me

you're the voice i hear inside my head

the reason that i'm singing

i need to find you i gotta find you

you're the missing piece i need

the song inside of me

i need to find you

i gotta find you

this is real

this is me

i'm e actly where i'm

supposed to be now

gonna let the light shine on me

now i've found who i am

there's no way to hold it in

no more hidding who i wanna be

this is me

you're the missing piece i need

the song inside of me

this is me

you're the voice i hear inside my head

the reason that i'm singing

now i've found who i am

there's no way to hold it in

no more hidding who i wanna be

this is me
