Breaking Free
I feel like I’m the kid in the corner
  Waiting for my hero or savior
  I feel like no one is around to hear me scream
  Because they pass by like a moving stream
  I feel discomfort when I sing
  Because a can hear laughter surrounding me
  My heart races when I'm called upon
  Because I always feel that I will be wrong
  Years have passed being the same
  Hoping the next one will keep me sane
  I don’t want to feel like the kid in the corner
  I want to shine brighter and brighter as I get older
  Insecurity haunts my dreams
  Forcing my insides to scream
  As I get older my insecurities disappear
  I am breaking free as I reappear.
