The Real Me - Original MLP Song (Silver Spoon)

(Song originally posted on DA)

I've spent all of this time
Thinking that she cared
That she was my friend
That what we had was rare

I was such a foolish filly
I should have guessed
Seeing as how all along
She treated the rest

I must have been scared
To end up the same way
Rejected and humiliated
Well! No more, I say!

I won't be a bully
I have to face the light
If I want a chance to live
It's time to set things right

I'm tired of walking two hooves behind
It's time to face my destiny
If this is what cruelty gets, I'm gonna be kind
I've gotta be the real me

I am not somepony's royal servant
It's time to face my destiny
I can be a sweet spoonful of sugar
I've gotta be the real me

But now I worry
I've waited far too long
Is it too late
To admit that I was wrong?

Everypony I've hurt
And had brushed aside
Will they forgive me
And my selfish pride?

Reciting apologies
Like lines; will I forget?
I've never been so scared
To face the justice I will get

I guess it's worth a shot
To try to make amends
The best way to move forward
Is to find some better friends!

I'm tired of walking two hooves behind
It's time to face my destiny
If this is what cruelty gets, I'm gonna be kind
I've gotta be the real me

I am not somepony's royal servant
It's time to face my destiny
I can be a sweet spoonful of sugar
I've gotta be the real me

I'm going to shimmer like silver
Diamond Tiara, this is goodbye!
I'm putting my hoof down
It's time to do what's right...

End
