Текст песни 17 - Mahalia

See as people we try, to please one another
In order to be equal, we lie
So we don′t have to suffer, no
But I'm tired of hiding for the benefit of my peers
What′s so wrong with shining?
Why've you got so much fear?
I got my skin all out
I don't care I′m proud to be me, yeah
I was scared to stand out now I′m wearing my hair down
And I feel so free
Oh, it's good to be 17
Well, I feel so free
Oh, it′s good to be 17
17
See, as teenagers we think we have to blend
But if you want to be greater than this
There's no use in pretending
′Cause I tried to change myself for the benefit of my friends
Well, now it's time to wave goodbye ′cause
My used-to-be's are at an end
Well, now I got my skin all out
I don't care I′m proud to be me, yeah
I was scared to stand out now I′m wearing my hair down
And I feel so free
Oh, it's good to be 17, baby
I feel so free
Oh, it′s good to be 17
17
I will be myself 'cause I like who I′m becoming
If you're ready come with me
These boots were made for running
But I′m sick of running
In circles around ya
This ain't about ya (No)
This ain't about ya
I got my skin all out
I don′t care I′m proud to be me, yeah
And I was scared to stand out now I'm wearing my hair down
And I feel so free
Oh, it′s good to be 17
17
17
17
17
I will be myself 'cause I like who I′m becoming
If you're ready come with me
These boots were made for running
But I′m sick of running
In circles around ya
This ain't about ya
This ain't about ya
