Saving Face

I grew up performing on the stage Stuck to the script, followed each page I played my part in the show I see all your faces in the crowd I just want to make you proud But your golden child lost her glow I'm learning to let go Of the girl you know Finally let my true self show I'm trying to find my place Trying to take up space And I'm done saving face for you Now as the spotlight fades away And all my flaws are on display I finally feel okay I am more than what I achieve I am more than what others believe With or without the gold I know I'm me I am more than a role in your play Flip the script, 'cause I'll find my own way With or without the gold I know I'm me 'Cause I'm finally letting go Of the girl you know Finally let my true self show I'm taking back the stage Turning a new page And I'm done saving face For you
