Better Me

It's like walking through sinking sand I struggle to put on a brave face But my smile betrays me Im stuck and I can not get out I sink down the more I try to grow and change And I don't push myself oh I'm scared if I do I won't measure up no I can't prove Can I be better at being who I am? So heavy, why do we carry our doubt and shame all over the place? Try to give myself grace, but I falter because I am afraid Of what they will say And I don't open up oh I'm scared if I do My weakness will give them the proof Can I better at being who I am? Can I be better at loving who I am? I can forgive myself when all my jumbled words don't come out right I can have patience with myself when I am having a rough time I can love myself so I can love the others in my life And I'll be better at being who I am And I'll be better at loving who I love And I'll be better at loving who I love And I'll be better at loving who I love And I'll be better at loving who I love
