You wanted to make them happy
You wanted their love and affection
You were such a good girl and always agreed
Squashing your true self and tried to believe
Deep inside you knew the truth
You just wanted to be the real you
But you knew you had to keep pretending
To make them love you
Stop trying to please other people
It's time to please yourself
Time to be happy, time to be you
Time to let your beauty
Shine through
Years went by and you kept on trying
Then the light came on
To set you free
Free to be you
And free, free, free to love true
Now the light in your eyes smiles through to your heart
Now that you've found your brand new start
No more lies, no more pretending
Now you can be true, true to your heart
No longer a people pleaser
It's time to please yourself
Time to be happy, time to be you
Time to let your beauty
Shine through
Shine through
