If I showed you the real me 

Would you like what you saw

If I showed the pain, if I showed the lost

What if on the inside I wasn't loud and mean 

What if you knew I just wanted to be seen?

See me, see me I don't want to be ignored 

What if I told you The 3rd grade girl still mourns 

Just tell me would you judge me if I didn't want to be weAk 

Tell me if you'd judge me if I came clean

What if I was hurt and now I hurt too

I guess I learn more from crying then having to face the truth 

I know what it's like to be made fun of and teased 

I want to help but then I always think

That was me a little bit ago 

I guess I contribute to the cycle 

So what if I showed you the real me 

What if I showed you why I bullied.

Would you accept the answer or walk away 

I've stood in my truth and pay the dues 

But would you still look at me the same if I told you I wasn't born that way.
