Born to be me

Swati Patil 2003 (Bidar, Karnataka)



I've seen a little of this world
have got a lot to see
But honestly, don't want to act out like many
coz I'm born to be me

I'm born to be me
The one who is little salty
And much faulty
The one with complete blunder
but can never be suppressed under
The one with many flaws
no acceptance with people loss
The one who cries and whines
also wakes up with a smile amd shines

I'm born to be me
happy independent and free
Like a nightingale singing on the blossom tree
Like a solo driver in an SUV

I'm born to be me
I'm born to be me
No shame! Even if it's the flaws you see
