You Still Don't Know Me

So many times I chose modesty over my true conviction
Chose to blend in, stay quiet, be tolerant
Perhaps to protect myself from judgment
Perhaps aware of your inaptitude to understand me
Ignoring in a way how dishonest I was being
Forgetting that deceit was never my intention
It doesn't matter how or why I say this
The past and those behind are so irrelevant
So many things have changed and now I'm stronger
My prize was where all that mess led me
Never again will I belittle myself to portray humility
I love myself enough, no need to say I'm sorry for it
I finally got a taste of happiness
The one that comes from loving your true self
Knowing your self-worth
No other person's approval needed
You can say I'm full of myself
and that’s okay because you no longer matter
Some will say I need to get over myself
and I will say "I will, as soon as you get over Me"
You can't find looking at the sky what hides under your pillow
So easy now, so simple
There really are only two kinds of people
There are good and there are bad
To those who didn't make it to my future
Now you know why
Just remember in case you ever see me, that
Even if you once got the chance to talk to me
You never knew me
You still don’t know me
