[Verse 1] If I had one chance to live my life again I wouldn't make no changes, now or way back when, yeah And if everything turns out the way I hope it goes But I can't wait to find out what it is that God knows [Pre-Chorus] But I don't wanna think about What's gonna come around for me I'll just take it day by day 'Cause it's the only way To be the best that I can be [Chorus] I never pretend to be something I'm not You get what you see when you see what I've got We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl I know exactly where I stand And all I can do is be true to myself I don't need permission from nobody else 'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl I know exactly who I am [Verse 2] And nothing's ever perfect, there's no guarantee And if I knew the answers, it would put my mind at ease, no-no So I'll just keep on going the way I've gone so far And maybe I'll end up tryin' to catch a fallin' star, yeah [Pre-Chorus] But I don't wanna think about What's gonna come around for me I'll just take it day by day 'Cause it's the only way To be the best that I can be [Chorus] I never pretend to be something I'm not You get what you see when you see what I've got We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl I know exactly where I stand And all I can do is be true to myself I don't need permission from nobody else 'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl I know exactly who I am [Bridge] Maybe this is who I am, don't need you to understand 'Cause everything is right where it should be And it won't be long till you know about me 'Cause I don't give up even when I'm out on love 'Cause everythings just how it should be And it won't be long till you know about me [Chorus] I never pretend to be something I'm not You get what you see when you see what I've got We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl I know exactly where I stand And all I can do is be true to myself I don't need permission from nobody else (No) 'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl I know exactly who I am I never pretend to be something I'm not You get what you see when you see what I've got We live in the real world, I'm just a real girl I know exactly where I stand And all I can do is be true to myself I don't need permission from nobody else 'Cause this is the real world, I'm not a little girl I know exactly who I am [Outro] I know exactly who I am
