Strip Me Lyrics
La la la la la la
Everyday I fight for
All my future somethings
A thousand little wars
I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime
Earning things that I don't need
But that's like chasing rainbows
And coming home empty
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
Ill be alright
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4
I dont need a microphone, yeah,
To say what I been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker
Thats always on eleven
And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I'm still the same
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4
'cuz when it all boils down
At the end of the day
It's what you do and say
That makes you who you are
Makes you think about it,
Think about it
Doesn't it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice
Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4
Everyday I fight for
All my future somethings
A thousand little wars
I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime
Earning things that I don't need
But that's like chasing rainbows
And coming home empty
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
Ill be alright
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4
To say what I been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker
Thats always on eleven
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I'm still the same
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4
At the end of the day
It's what you do and say
That makes you who you are
Makes you think about it,
Think about it
Doesn't it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I'll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
but you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4

This song is all about maintaining your individuality. You can't let people force you into their mold. Its a constant battle, you need to strip off everything about you that makes you fake. Your inner self is what makes you unique, bit the personalities that people get us to wear just corrupts us.
I love this song-- This seems to relate to my life and a lot of other people I know. I feel like life can get so difficult and crazy, but it is so important to remember who you are through everything. Always be yourself, no matter what is you are dealing with, where you are, or who are with. Do not be afraid to express how you truly feel sometimes.
"Take what you want, steal my pride" Even if you think you might lose some of your pride by doing something, does not mean it is wrong as long as you are being honest with yourself. No one can take away from who are you are.
