This Is Me, Fo' Real Songtext

von Avril Lavigne

This is who I really am.
The girl ive always been
Ive never been that great of a singer
Thats why I sound so bad live.

I dont really know how to play guitar
I can only strum one chord.
Im not much of a skateboarder
But I skate when im on camera
So people can think I skate

Chorus
This is me FO' REAL!
Im not lyin this time.
This is me FO' REAL!
Im not pretendin' anymore.

I'm not as punk as you think I am
I only dress like this so people will like me more
I have findly figured out
That just dressing hardcore.
Does not make me all punk

Repeat CHORUS

I thought I sung punk, hardcore songs
But I realized I sing pop.
I have finally seen the light
The light bulb has come on in my head.
I sing love songs, although I hate to admit it

Repeat CHORUS (2X)

I didnt really write my songs
When I was 16 years old
Although I took all the credit
There were other people
Who helped me.

I like to play hockey
I like to snowboard
And other extreme stuff
But WOOHOO! I realized
I wasnt the only girl
Who did stuff like this.

Why'd I have to make things so complicated
I see the way im actin like somebody else
Gets people frustrated.
I fall, and I crawl, and I break
And I take what I get
And I turned it into. im never gonna
Fake like that no more
Cause this is me fo' real.

Repeat CHORUS til fade out.
