Real

(album: Last One Picked - 2002)

I am what I am
I'm super fortified hundred proof girl with a band
And I'm a velveteen rabbit made of steel with a plan
I'm not your seventeen girl but it's not worth a can
Of worms, I'm not your beauty queen
I'm not the girl in glamour magazine
I'm not running for miss popularity
Cause I won't be what I can't be

[Chorus:]
But I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
And I will find my way to heal
And I will find my voice my stand

I am who I am
I am woman hear me roar and I am salt, I am sand
A million starfish stranded, landed, I'll throw back what I can
I'll save the planet, change the world, I'll make a lone girl stand,
I've got better things to do than be shown off
I won't be the doll you'll lock up in a box
Don't expect me to be anything I'm not
Cause I won't be what I can't be

[Chorus]

Approval is your sword
Popularity your crown
But I'm not one of your subjects, you can't bring me down
You say I'll lose your approval if I'm not cool like you
Well, here's a newsflash for you I've got nothing to lose
Your laughter is hollow because I don't care
You look down at me, but I'm not there
I've got nothing to prove and nothing to lose
Nothing to prove and nothing to lose

[Chorus]
