I’ll never apologize

Verse

I’ve tried to fit, I’ve tried to hide

Cut my colors, swallowed my pride

But I’m done dimming who I am

I won’t play by their plan

Pre-Chorus

If I’m too loud, too raw, too real

That’s not my fault, that’s just how I feel

I won’t break to make you stay

I’m choosing my own way

Chorus

I’ll never apologize

For who I am inside

If you don’t like my voice or view

You’re not my people, that’s true

I’ll stand tall, I’ll stay true

I’ll live my life for me, not you

for me, not you

Verse

They’ll whisper, they’ll stare, they’ll doubt

But I know what I’m about

I’ll find the air I need to breathe

The ground that lets me be free

Pre-Chorus

I won’t shrink, I won’t pretend

I won’t bend to fit their trend

I’m choosing love for me alone

I’m finally home

Chorus

I’ll never apologize

For who I am inside

If you don’t like my voice or view

You’re not my people, that’s true

I’ll stand tall, I’ll stay true

I’ll live my life for me, not you

(I’ll live my life for me, not you)

For me, not you

Bridge

Better friends, better love, better space

Where I can show my face

I’ll rise, I’ll speak, I’ll be

Exactly who I’m meant to be

Final Chorus

I’ll never apologize

For who I am inside

If you don’t like my voice or view

You’re not my people, that’s true

I’ll stand tall, I’ll stay true

I’ll live my life for me, not you

For me, not you

I’ll live my life for me, not you

I’ll never apologize

For who I am inside

And this is my life
