Being Me

I want to be loved

For just who I am

Not what you would like me to be

I want to be seen

Through the eyes of love

Not looking to find fault with me

Take me as I am

Or just turn around

Walk away 'cause I truly believe

It's all compromise

Love has three sides

There's an us, there's a you, and a me

See me, be me

Long enough to know just how I feel

Know me, show me

The respect I deserve and until

You realize

That I have the right

To let my true spirit run free

Or I'll walk alone

I'll carry on

With the business of being me

Where do you get off?

Who made you the boss?

We're meant to be sharing this love

Let's build on the best accepting the rest

Celebrating the difference in us

See me, be me

Long enough to know just how I feel

Know me, show me

The respect I deserve and until

You realize

I won't be denied of life for your comfort and peace

I'll go it alone

I'll carry on

With the business of being me

I love you, I do, but I'll do without you

If I know you will never know me (Know me)

If you can't see a way to see me (See me)

The business of being me
