I've always been a little shy
But somehow there came a time
I lost what I lived for
I became a monster
I'm not that pony anymore
I guess I got some bad advice
I haven't been very nice
But I'm leaving that now
I won't ever let you down
I'm back to the way I was before

I'm gonna stand up for what's right
I won't let what I say get between you and I
Because being mean isn't what I want to be
Back to hiding behind the crowds
Back to hiding the words I shouldn't say out loud
Because this is the real me

I tried to stand up for myself
But that didn't quite work out
Guess I really messed up, now I'm trying to 'fess up
I promise to never turn into a bully like that again
From now on I will assert
Without letting you get hurt
Learned from that, won't go back
Forever I'll be your faithful friend
I'm gonna stand up for what's right
I won't let what I say get between you and I
Because being mean isn't what I want to be
Back to hiding behind the crowds
Back to hiding the words I shouldn't say out loud
Because this is the real me

I will always be
Nothing more than me
It's who am to be shy
So I guess that's alright
I won't try to change again
I refuse to hurt my friends
From now on what you'll see
Is the real me
I will always be
Nothing more than me
It's who am to be shy
So I guess that's alright
I won't try to change again
I refuse to hurt my friends
From now on what you'll see
Is the real me

I'm gonna stand up for what's right
I won't let what I say get between you and I
Because being mean isn't what I want to be
Back to hiding behind the crowds
Back to hiding the words I shouldn't say out loud
Because this is the real me
