Lyrics

Yesterday i watched the videos
From when i was a boy
I have to say, well it took me by surprise
I heard that little boy say
"I don't want people to see how stupid i am"
It made me wonder "who told him all those lies?"
I carry this with me everyday
And i want to let it go
Cuz i know that i am good enough
I wish that you could understand
The price that i have paid to be a man
It could have been my big brother
I was just a pain in his ass
Maybe my mom,
Cuz to her i could never do things right
My cheating dad went along with it
To keep the peace in the house
Now i'm left with this burden and stage-fright
I was a champion of nothing
During my school career
Hyperactive, i was a guinea pig for the little white pills
"Super bright, but he doesn't apply himself"
Is what my teachers said
They wrote me off, another kid lost to the social ills
Well i've carried this with me long enough
And it's time to let it go
Cuz i know that i am good enough
I wish that you could understand
The price that i have paid to be a man
I don't have to prove myself
Or justify my worth
What i am is only who i am
It's who i am
Only who i am
A part of me was stolen by my cousins
When i was only 10
Threw me face down on the bed
I didn't know what was happening
These scars are like a magnet
They attract more and more shame
But i ain't gonna play the victim, i got no one to blame
These voices inside my head
Well they almost took me down
But i found the sound of silence
It led me to forgiveness
I know that i am good enough
I wish that you could understand
The price that i have paid to be a man
I don't have to prove myself
Or justify my worth
What i am is only who i am
It's who i am
Only who i am
I am who i am
I am who i am
I am who i am
I'm fine the way i am
