HI, I’m not entirely sure why I’m sharing this. I think I just want to connect with people who may understand what I’m saying without needing a long explanation, and I’m too drained to share it widely. I also want to be clear that I’m not posting this to promote my music or this song, which is why I haven’t included any links or anything that could be seen that way. It’s difficult to get feedback from people who might understand or appreciate the lyrics without posting them publicly and then having to explain my neurodiversity, which, honestly, I find exhausting. So if these lyrics feel relevant to you, if you relate to them, or if you simply have a thought to share, I’d truly appreciate your feedback. If they spark an emotion or resonate with you in any way, I’d be grateful for a comment. I won’t pretend otherwise—I know I need some reassuring feedback, and I’m honestly scared to ask. Thank you.

‘To Be Me’ by Dash13 (2026)

I don’t know
What it means
To be me
Anymore

Now and forever
I’m caught in between
Who I was
And what you see

Trying to figure it out
On my own
Every step I take
Feels overgrown

If I’m honest now
Would it change a thing?
Or is the weight of the past
Still pulling me?

I don’t know
What it means
To be me
Anymore

Who knows?
I don’t

I don’t know
What it means
To be me
Anymore

Maybe I push too hard
Maybe I disappear
Scaring the ones I love
Till they’re not here

And I don’t blame them
No, I don’t
I wouldn’t stay either
If I was someone else

I’m not asking for pity
I’ve got none left now
Just asking for a moment
To figure this out

I don’t know
What it means
To be me
Anymore

Who knows?
I don’t

But there’s something left
I can feel it inside
A trace of who I was
Still trying to survive

If it still has value
Give me one more try
Not just words or apologies
But trust — this time

I don’t want to mess this up
Anymore again
Just a chance to change
To feel like I matter in the end

I don’t know
What it means
To be me
Anymore

Who knows?
I don’t
