Stand Out
Embrace Your Uniqueness with Jessie Daniels' 'Stand Out'
Lyrics
I'm staring in the mirror
Reflecting on oneself in the mirror
Looking back at me
Evaluating self-reflection
Somehow You've replaced yourself
Feeling a sense of change within oneself
And don't like what You see
Discontent with the changed perception
You've been asleep for far too long
Being unaware or disconnected for a long time
To what other people think
Concerned about others' opinions
So You bend and You break
Conforming and compromising
And You lose along the way
Suffering losses in the process
What once was beautiful
Something previously beautiful
I want to
Desire
Stand out
Wish to be noticeable and unique
I wanna stand tall, I wanna be myself
Desire to stand tall and be authentic
Even it means, I won't fit in at all
Acceptance of not fitting societal norms
I wanna be real, I wanna be me
Aspiring for genuineness
'Cause everything I am is who I'm meant to be
Embracing one's true self
I was meant to be free
Belief in personal freedom
Why are we so quick to hide originality?
Questioning society's tendency to hide uniqueness
We try and try to fit inside a false reality
Attempting to conform to an artificial reality
We're all the same when it comes to putting on the face
Similarity in wearing societal masks
And it's such a shame, oh it's such a waste
Expressing regret for this conformity
'Cause what makes us beautiful
Emphasizing the beauty in individuality
Is what make us
Emphasizing individuality as defining beauty
Stand out
Yearning to be distinct
I wanna stand tall, I wanna be myself
Desire to stand tall and genuine
Even if it means, I won't fit in at all
Acceptance of potential exclusion due to authenticity
I wanna be real, I wanna be me
Desire for authenticity
'Cause everything I am is who I'm meant to be
Belief that true self defines everything
I was meant to be free
Belief in inherent freedom of being oneself
We are, we are beautiful
Reiteration of collective beauty in uniqueness
We are, we are beautiful
-We are, we are beautiful
-We are, we are beautiful
-What makes us beautiful
Reiterating the beauty in individuality
Is what makes us
Emphasizing individuality as defining beauty
Stand out
Desire to stand out and be genuine
I wanna stand tall, I wanna be myself
Desire to stand tall and be oneself
Even if it means, I won't fit in at all
Acceptance of potential social non-conformity
I wanna be real, I wanna be me
Yearning for authenticity
'Cause everything I am is who I'm meant to be
Belief that true self defines everything
I was meant to be free
Belief in inherent freedom of being oneself
We are, we are beautiful
Reiteration of collective beauty in uniqueness
We are, we are beautiful
-We are, we are beautiful
-We are, we are beautiful
-We are
Reinforcing collective beauty
