I Write a Song

Sit down with a guitar Maybe with my notebook Lyrics don't go too far I don't care because I don't look Now they might say that I'm dumb Or maybe just a sinner At some point I would become numb But at least just a beginner It's like Every time I write a song I'm someone that I'm not And if I were to be myself My bones would start to rot You know I've got A difficult time being number two So instead of being me I've just been trying to be you You know it's true My whole life I've been filling someone else's shoes Just trying to be you Like I've got something to prove Maybe we can dance And maybe play some music Then I cannot feel my hands At this point it's just confusing Now they might say that we're dumb Or maybe we're just lost At some point I would become numb At what cost It's like Every time I write a song I'm someone that I'm not And if I were to be myself My bones would start to rot You know I've got A difficult time being number two So instead of being me I've just been trying to be you You know it's true My whole life I'm just filling someone else's shoes Just trying to be you Like I've got something to prove But I don't got nothing to prove Just trying to be you Just trying to be you Following your groove I'll sing another tune Like I've got something to prove I've got nothing to prove
