discovering iām desirable as a trans person
hi guys!!! just want to share something iāve been working on. iām producing a song i started writing a year ago, and i thought iād share. i wrote it because basically all of my teen years i wanted a boyfriend and felt insecure for not having one, because i felt inherently unlovable as a trans person and needed to be proven wrong. iām finally at a place in my life where any romantic pursuits are purely to give love, rather than desperately trying to receive it. above all, that change took place because i was able to give myself the love i was looking for, and i hope that me sharing this can help other trans people
here are the lyrics (so far!)
i canāt see who iām becoming
so tell me, do you think iām stunning?
the answers always heard, but never felt
naive and hopeful for another
to give me what i could never give myself
but for now, iāll find out when i find out
yeah iāll be found, when iām found
summer nights have got potential
find a man, tell him heās special
then wake up to another empty bed
barefoot walking to the mirror
accepting i cant find a winner
but face to face with who lived too long in stealth
until now, id be found when iād be found
now iāve come around, weāre going out
let me know if u want to hear the demo!
