Just Be Me
A lot has changed in the past few years. I've gained a lot, I've lost a lot. But now the world's all ears. I've found my voice. I'll say it loud: "Everything is my choice." No one is going decide for me, 'cause I'm stronger than I used to be. I'm going to write my own story, 'cause I'm here to just be me. I'm living a new life, and I'm going to make the best of it. I'm going to fight all of life's strife. The road ahead of me is full of promise, and now I've got a clear head. My old life, I won't miss. All the fake friends I'm leaving behind... I was so blind. But now I can see who I was meant to be.

To My Ex-Best Friend
I don't understand. What happened? What seems like yesterday, we were cool. But now, I feel like a fool. Out of nowhere, you had an issue with me. You made me feel as insignificant as a flea. I texted you "Merry Christmas," and when I got no reply I had to grimace. I'm over here listening to Bad Blood. I guess our friendship is a dud. I keep thinking of you with this song. What did I do that was so wrong? I suppose it's whatever. I'm gone, however. I hope you have a good life. Hope when I walk away you see the knife.
