"Unveiling My Truth"

Tried writing a song about myself! It probably ain't good but I tried 🙏 The way it's written is probably wrong but I was just trying what I thought worked 😂 (Verse 1) In the shadows, I quietly reside A secret locked within, my true self denied From a young age, I knew who I was inside But a world so transphobic, my truth I had to hide (Pre-Chorus) With every passing day, the weight grows heavier Keeping my identity concealed, a constant barrier The fear of rejection, their disapproving gaze But deep within my soul, my authenticity stays (Chorus) I'll rise above the darkness, find my own way A transmale hidden, but strong I'll stay Though my family may reject, refuse to understand I won't let their prejudice define who I am (Verse 2) Their words like daggers, cutting through my heart But I won't let their ignorance tear me apart For in the depths of my being, a fire burns bright A truth that's undeniable, a beacon in the night (Pre-Chorus) At eighteen, I stand firm, my resolve unwavering Knowing deep within that my identity is worth saving I'll bide my time, till the day I break free From this toxic home, where I can't truly be me (Chorus) I'll rise above the darkness, find my own way A transmale hidden, but strong I'll stay Though my family may reject, refuse to understand I won't let their prejudice define who I am (Bridge) There may be pain and loneliness on this road I tread But I'll endure, for my true self lies ahead With each step, I'll shed the weight of their disdain Embracing my authenticity, breaking free from this chain (Chorus) I'll rise above the darkness, find my own way A transmale hidden, but strong I'll stay Though my family may reject, refuse to understand I won't let their prejudice define who I am (Outro) One day, I'll find my place, where acceptance resides Where love and understanding cast away the lies I'll build a new home, with chosen family by my side Where I can be true, and my spirit can truly thrive (edited)
