You Can Be You Lyrics by Margaret Cho

Lucky Gift

0

You know I never understand
What makes a woman what makes a man
I can see just what others can’t
To be a stranger in dangerous land
Are you watching from high above
While we fight over who gets love
All I know is I’ve had enough
So I’m sending this message up
[Chorus]
And you can be you
You can be you
You can be you
And that’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
I sit here wondering what it’s worth
All that may be assigned at birth
Stuck in something that must be cursed
Is destiny in reverse
We all wish for a better lifе
Try to make it to morning light
I sing again to survive
[Chorus]
And you can be you
You can bе you
You can be you
And that’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
All those lonely nights
Waiting on your own
Not a friend in sight
But I’m here tonight
I’m on your side
[Chorus]
And you can be you
You can be you
You can be you
And that’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
That’s what’s true
