**********Lyrics**********

I'm coming out
I'm coming
I'm coming out
I'm coming out
I'm coming out
I'm coming out

I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show

There's a new me coming out
And I just had to live
And I wanna give
I'm completely positive
I think this time around
I am gonna do it
Like you never do it
Like you never knew it
Ooh, I'll make it through

The time has come for me
To break out of the shell
I have to shout
That I'm coming out

I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show

I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show

I've got to show the world
All that I wanna be
And all my billities
Ther's so much more to me
Somehow, I have to make them
Just understand
I got it well in hand
And, oh, how I've planned
I'm spreadin' love
There's no need to fear
And I just feel so glad
Everytime I hear:

I'm coming out
I want the world to know
Got to let it show
I'm coming out
I want the world to know
I got to let it show

this song is such an inspiration!!!! it applies to LIFE. From being a shy girl growing up to becoming a fully bloomed flower. Or, just achieving your full potential as a human being. What GOD intended u to be!!!!!!!! LOL

[ivorwindybottom69]

it's a great song ruined by all the queers that come out to it, like the word gay itself, it used to mean something completely different!! Just don't come out, as you put it!!!

Too bad he doesn't exist though.

If God were as limited as a man he wouldn't be God. God can do things way beyond your imagination. Peace be with you. Blessed be the name of the LORD.
