lyrics

I had an instinct, a drive to express myself
Shared my convictions in ways that were heartfelt
All eyes were drawn to me and I found it hard to breathe
Heavy judgement in the air. So I asked myself how much I care

No shame, burn the ego
No shame, that’s how I let go
Now I’m living free
‘Cause there’s no shame in me

So here’s a question: Where does the spite come from?
Is it a projection of your subjective opinion
Although it’s intense to feel I must remember it isn’t real
Your biased views will be ignored
You can leave your baggage at the door

No shame, burn the ego
No shame, that’s how I let go
Now I’m living free
‘Cause there’s no shame in me

When I look in the mirror
I see the only person I need to please
And all those small time worries fade away
As soon as I start chasing bigger dreams

There’s a weight off my shoulders
And I’m bouncing wide strides down the street
Things are coming together
And I feel like the world’s at my feet
I was seeking permission to
Let my truest beliefs shine through
When everything’s done and said
It seems the shame was only in my head

No shame, burn the ego
No shame, that’s how I let go
Now I’m living free
‘Cause there’s no shame in me

No shame, no shame, no shame, no
No shame, no shame, no shame
No shame, no shame, no shame, no
No shame, no shame, no shame
