Let It Be

I have found so much potential,
Yet, I feel like a nobody.
I am aware of the mistakes I make,
But I'm trying to fix them, can't you see?

Let me a chance to prove myself.
Let me search for this missing key.
It's my life.
Let it be.

You seem as if to you, my dreams,
Sound like a complete hypocrisy.
And I know you hope for my best,
But you're erasing what really makes me, me.

Let me rule my own decisions,
Let me face my reality.
It's my life, so please,
Let it be.
