?Can I just be happy being me??

Why can't I be happy now
I want to be somewhere else
Why can't I be happy now
like the movie stars

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

Why can't I accept my life
I want to like more about it
How I'm overweight
I don't want to forsake

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

I don't want it to matter
how much I make
or what my job is
does anyone relate?

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

I want to give more than I do
I want to share a lot more
I want to be strong enough
in my beliefs too

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

I want to accept my body
accept my mind
accept my limitations
and be fine

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

Why can't I be happy now?
I want to live more free
I want to know what it is
all about

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?

I just want to be
happy being me
I just want to be
happy being me

Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
Can I just be
Can I just be happy being me?
