[Verse 1:]
In a world that seems so fake, artificial everything;
Oh I just want be real,
I gotta say how I feel, can't wait.Always looking at myself,
Never liking what I see;
I never gave me the chance,
Never knew what I really could be.[Chorus 1:]
(Better than living a lie),
(it's better than wearing a disguise);
Take a chance on you,
(You just be you),
(take a chance on you).[Verse 2:]
I can't say the world has changed,
They still judge by what they see.
Though I can't help what they say,
I know who's inside of me.It's okay to take that chance,
Try your possibilities (possibilities);
No one can do what you do,
Or stop all the things you can be
(they can't even stop what you're gonna be).[Chorus 2:]
(Better than living a lie) living a lie,
(it's better than wearing a disguise);
Take a chance on you,
(You just be you),
(take a chance on you, on you).[Bridge:]
The grass is always green on the other side,
It's when you're looking through your insecure eyes.
And it's better than living a lie (living a lie),
So much better than wearing a disguise,
(take a chance on you) You just be you,
(You just be you, You just be you).[Ending:]
It's better (better)
Than living a lie (living a lie),
So much better than wearing a disguise;
(take a chance on you),
(take a chance on you),
(take a chance on you),
You just be you.
