You Don't Have to Change

Don’t ever be afraid to be who you truly are
Change is the last thing you need to do by far
So show me the person you’ve always kept inside
People like me will show you there’s no need to hide
Will you be okay pretending to be someone you’re not?
Like a Shakespearean character whose caught up in the plot
You will lose yourself in a place completely made out of rot.

Be free to go an express yourself I promise I’ll never judge
Yourself is someone who I adore and never would misjudge
And why are you afraid that one day I’ll decide to turn my back?
The place you now hold in my heart suggests it’s too late to unpack
Right for me is what you are, you’d never need to change your ways
People love you for who you are and to us you’re not just some phase
Will continue showing you how special you’re even for the rest of my days
Love is a part of the friendships we made and it has set all of our hearts ablaze
The awkward laugh and crooked smile you give makes us like you even more
Real is the bound that we’ve promised to keep from the moment we all swore
You never have to worry about being alone since this oath is what I’ll stand for.
