Hello everyone it's hive open mic week 251 with the theme High School. This week, I will be singing a song titled 'Only You Can Be You' from the movie How To Rock by Miller cymphonique.
"Only you can be you" is one of my favourite song from the musical movie How to rock. It's a high school movie were the most popular girl in a band called the" Perfs" had an incident, came back wearing braces and glasses and is kicked out because she's no longer considered 'perfect'. She then joined an up and coming band called " gravity 5", which teaches her to be her herself and love who she really is.
In high school today, many people succumb to the pressure of trying to fit in, often being someone they are not, just to be accepted by their peers. The song encourages us to accept and embrace our uniqueness and imperfections, not caring about being with the crowd but finding our true self. i hope you enjoy my cover song.
Lyrics
Hey you, what's the matter?
Lately you've been looking down
Is that someone in the mirror?
The reason you don't come around
That-that's crazy, this isn't the you I know
Feeling un-pretty, putting on a show
You don't wanna be a wannabe
So who you really gonna be?
[Chorus]
Only you can be you
Only I can be me
You always wanna be what you're not
Can't you be happy with what you've got?
You're perfect the way you are
With your insecurities, flaws and scars
Life's too short to worry
Don't you know it's true
Only you can be you (You can be you)
Only I can be me (I can be me)
Only you can be you (You can be you)
Only I can be me (I can be me)
[Verse 2]
You think you ain't got swagger
Gotta be cooler than you are
I think whatever
Let 'em know that you're a star
Be crazy, be who you wanna be
No maybe's, you're a celebrity
You don't wanna be a wannabe
Show them who you're gonna be
[Chorus]
Only you can be you
Only I can be me
You always wanna be what you're not
Can't you be happy with what you've got?
You're perfect the way you are
With your insecurities, flaws and scars
Life's too short to worry
Don't you know it's true
Only you can be you (You can be you)
Only I can be me (I can be me)
Only you can be you (You can be you)
Only I can be me
[Verse 3]
If you love who you are put you're hands up
You feeling good 'bout yourself just stand up
You independent and you're strong, throw your hands up
You feeling fabulous? Put your hands up
You can be you, I can be me
You a star if you ain't on TV
You tall, you short, you different, you cute
You light, you dark, you beautiful, you, you
[Chorus]
