Acceptance Speech - 8Track

Uh Oh, my goodness I'm so nervous Do I deserve this? Full disclosure I can be so insecure Wrapped up in all this Just a recovering validation-aholic Yeah, sometimes I'm defined By the volume of a crowd's applause I put my worth in their claps, are they loud or soft? Hooked up to that approval like an IV Act like I don't, but I do care what people think Speaking of, are this lyrics tight? Aye, at least I'm not in denial, right? This goes out to myself And every single tear that fell Telling me that no one could tell me who to be Except for me All my flaws I gotta recognize all my wrongs I'm so humbled and grateful to be Accepting me To all the people I've wasted time comparing myself to If I hated it's 'cause I was jealous of you Just a reflection of my fear Rejection that I hear From my toughest critic The mirror Big shout to all the teams that I've been cut from For showing me what I can get back up from To the Grammys I'ma keep on dreaming about ya But I'll be the same person with or without ya This goes out to myself And every single tear that fell Telling me that no one could tell me who to be Except for me All my flaws I gotta recognize all my wrongs I'm so humbled and grateful to be Accepting me To all the kids with guitars looking up At the stars, the answer is not a Platinum Record The old me couldn't make it tonight So accepting on my behalf is somebody better This goes out to myself And every single tear that fell Telling me that no one could tell me who to be Except for me All my flaws I gotta recognize all my wrongs I'm so humbled and grateful to be Accepting me
