I've always been the kinda 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, to let you know This is real, this is me I'm exactly 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 hidin' who I wanna be, this is me, yeah Do you know what it's like to feel so in the dark? To dream about a life when 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 exactly 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 hidin' 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 exactly 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 hiding who I wanna be This is me You're the missing piece, I need the song inside of me This is me, yeah You're the voice I hear inside my head, the reason that I'm singing Now I found who I am, there's no way to hold it in No more hidin' who I wanna be, this is me
