Lyric

I used to always turn away – pretend I didn’t hear

No part of me fit that mold

But now I understand better – the parts aren’t broken, they’re just incomplete

And maybe being whole means being authentic

La-la la-la la-la, lai-la lai-la lai-la, lai-la lai-laa

Maybe being whole means being authentic

I’m not always steady, sometimes I fall over

I say the wrong words, I leave things undone

But I don’t need permission to stand on my feet as I am

I take a deep breath, and I’m not going to change

La-la la-la la-la, lai-la lai-la lai-laa, lai-la lai-laa

I take a deep breath, and I’m not going to change

I’m not going to chase an image, I’m not going to shrink myself to fit it

I’m good enough, and I don’t need to change

If I laugh too much loud or I'm too quiet

I'm still worth loving

La-la la-la, la-la lai-la lai-la, lai-la lai-laa

I'm still worth loving

La-la la-la la-la, lai-la lai-la lai-laa, lai-la lai-laa

Maybe being whole means being authentic
