Thank You For Letting Me Be Me

Thank you for letting me be myself

Some people don't like me being me

It seems that I make them feel uneasy about themselves

I've tried hard in the past to fit in with people

It hasn't worked

So thank you for letting me be me

It's the only me I do

And I get offended when I'm not liked

I would also like to think that that's a natural human emotion

But it seems the position I'm in means it's OK to hate me

Even if we've never met

So thank you for letting me be me

I'm on the telly so people think I don't have feelings

I do

So thank you for letting me be me

I read stuff about me that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy

You have never said or thought these things

So thank you for letting me be me

I have money to spend and I live the life of a high roller

But you've never held this against me

Some people make me feel as though I don't deserve to be where I am

And believe me I too on many occasions have had these feelings

They're not alone

But you have never thought these things

So thank you for allowing me to be me

If I'm ever abrasive or seem arrogant

It's because I'm scared

But you know this

And you let me be me

Some people will watch this and tear it to pieces

But they're not like you

They won't let me be
