Oh, your insecurities,
They are not mine to bear.
And I will not apologize,
I will not be compared.
And I belong, oh, in this world,
Exactly as I am.
It’s not my fault that you, yourself,
Accuse and blame your man.
I have spent years working on myself.
To be who I am today.
There are days that I just could not see.
So, I fell to my knees and prayed.
If you don’t like who you have become,
Decide and change your ways.
Take some time and look inside,
You might have some to blame.
Oh, your insecurities,
They are not mine to bear.
And I will not apologize,
I will not be compared.
And I belong, oh, in this world,
Exactly as I am.
It’s not my fault that you, yourself,
Accuse and blame your man.
Tear down your wall and build again.
Create somethin’ that is new.
Love yourself, and who you are.
Make no excuse and you’ll go far.
Don’t play games, who has the time?
Take your authority.
If you’re not happy just walk away.
I’m not your target, I’m not your prey!
Oh, it’s not allowed, for you to say,
The words you’ve chosen,
To speak to me today.
No, it’s not allowed, for you to say,
The words you’ve chosen,
To speak to me today.
Oh, your insecurities,
They aren’t my cross to bear.
And I will not apologize,
I will not be compared.
Well, and I’ll show up oh in this world,
Exactly as I am.
It’s not my fault that you, yourself,
Aren’t willing to expand.
It’s not my fault that you, yourself,
Aren’t willing to expand!
No, it’s not allowed, for you to say,
The words you’ve chosen,
To speak to me today.
No, it’s not allowed....
