This Is Me
Demi Lovato · Other Songs - Demi Lovato
I've always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I've got to say
But I have this dream
Bright inside of me
I'm gonna let it show
It's time to let you know
To let you know...
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed
to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
Do you know what it's like
To feel so in the dark
To dream about a life
Where you're the shining star
Even though it seems
Like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself
It's the only way
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed
to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singin'
I need to find you
I gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
I need to find you
I gotta find you
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed
to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
This is me... This is me...
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singin'
Now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I've got to say
But I have this dream
Bright inside of me
I'm gonna let it show
It's time to let you know
To let you know...
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed
to be now
Gonna let the light shine on me
now I've found who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
Do you know what it's like
To feel so in the dark
To dream about a life
Where you're the shining star
Even though it seems
Like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself
It's the only way
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed

Gonna let the light shine on me

There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me

There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
