It's kind of hard for me to say
What I want to tell you,
Cause I'm not quite sure
How you'll react.
But I hope you still love me.
I hope it doesn't change
The way
You see me.

Cause I'm just the same
As I've always been.
It's just another part of me
That you didn't see before.
I tried to keep it to myself
But it's killing me, now.
So I have to ask

Is it okay
For me to be me?
Is it okay
For me to love
Who I want to?
And is it okay
For me to love myself
The way I am?
Cause I don't think
I can be anybody else.
So I hope it's okay

I hope you can understand.
That this is the way
I was made.
I'm not built
To love like you.
I won't say
That I never tried.
But it just wasn't me.
So I hope it's alright
If I'm a little different
Inside.

Is it okay
For me to be me?
Is it okay
For me to love
Who I want to?
And is it okay
For me to love myself
The way I am?
Cause I don't think
I can be anybody else.
So I hope it's okay

I'm trying to tell myself
That it doesn't matter
What anyone else thinks
But without your love
I don't know what I'd do

Is it okay
For me to be me?
Is it okay
For me to love
Who I want to?
And is it okay
For me to love myself
The way I am?
Cause I don't think
I can be anybody else.
So I hope it's okay.

Is it okay?
