[Verse 1] I was trying too hard to fit in
Make me feel like I belonged to something
But it hurt in my heart
Hiding a part of who I am

[Verse 2] I was wasting my days down on myself
Down on my life and everyone else
I thought, "They won't understand"
But it wasn't about them

[Chorus] It's my parade, I'll make it great
Blow my horn, throw confetti, celebrate
You can march, you can dance
Every moment is your chance to be yourself
And sing out

[Verse 2] There's a story inside me to tell
It took some time to get the water from the well
I thought I'd waited too long, thought I'd say something wrong
That they won't understand, but my life is in my hands

[Chorus] It's my parade, I'll make it great
Blow my horn, throw confetti, celebrate
You can march, you can dance
Every moment is your chance to be yourself
And sing out

[Bridge] La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la

[Chorus] It's my parade, I'll make it great
Blow my horn, throw confetti, celebrate
You can march, you can dance
Every moment is your chance to be yourself
And sing out

[Outro] And sing out
And sing out
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la
