1
When I look up at these hollowed walls of high achievement and storied victories
2
I can hear irony laughing â"š¬í‹Å“cause you see pride where I see vanity
3
Impressing all of your friends has never been one of my intentions
4
My heart is set of different goals
5
I wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t be a trophy for anyone
6
So sorry if I havenâ"š¬â"ž¢t quite lived up to your great expectations
7
You know if I could Iâ"š¬â"ž¢d walk on water for you but
8
I have limitations
9
Tell me when your ego gets hungry do you shake the smaller fruit off the family tree
10
And when you go to sleep do you forget to count the black sheep
11
Sometimes whatâ"š¬â"ž¢s simple math to most doesnâ"š¬â"ž¢t add up when you get behind closed doors
12
A photo may speak a thousand words but do you really get the picture I just want a life to call my own is that too much to ask for
13
The fact is Iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve committed no crime here
14
and I apologize for nothing So open up your eyes and try to realize
15
That we donâ"š¬â"ž¢t share the same worldview
16
I donâ"š¬â"ž¢t mean to disrespect but donâ"š¬â"ž¢t you ever forget
17
That I canâ"š¬â"ž¢t live my life for you
