[Verse 1]
I woke up in my own skin
Couldn’t fit the old grin
Tried on a hundred names
None of them felt like me
I kept the good in a jar
Kept the bad in the dark
If it came with a sting
I let it fall apart
I been learning my shape
Without your hands on my waist
I been learning my pace
No more running your race
[Pre-Chorus]
If it drains me, gone
If it breaks me, gone
I’m too rare for the weight
I’m too loud for the cage
[Chorus]
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Keep your poison off my table
I got gold in my hands
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Only love gets through the door
Only truth makes me stand
[Verse 2]
I cut the dead-end ties
Burned the list, nice try
Anybody moving grim
Don’t get to live in me
I want soft in my chest
I want fire, then rest
I want peace with a pulse
And a yes that feels like yes
Look at me now, I bloom
Out the mud, out the doom
I was always that girl
Just needed room
[Pre-Chorus]
If it drains me, gone
If it breaks me, gone
I’m too rare for the weight
I’m too loud for the cage
[Chorus]
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Keep your poison off my table
I got gold in my hands
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Only love gets through the door
Only truth makes me stand
[Bridge]
I don’t need a rescue
I don’t need a script
I’m the one I was waiting on
I’m the one that fits
Let the fake ones fade out
Let the real ones stay
I made room for my future
I made room for my face
[Chorus]
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Keep your poison off my table
I got gold in my hands
I’m who I choose, I choose
I’m who I choose, I choose
Only love gets through the door
Only truth makes me stand
