and i'm barely on square one
expectations rise above me
all i wanna do is use my own voice
but what if it's not good enough for you
there are so many things you want for me
things you said that i could be
but it seems my feet are taking me to a whole different direction
just let me get there naturally
without unwanted pressures happening
let's let unfold what is meant for me
and i know i'm gonna get there if i use my way
sick of trying to please everybody
why can't i just do this one thing for me
everybody has decided what image they want for me
i haven't even figured out
please just leave that to me
there are so many possibilities
so much we can do with what we were given
so please excuse me for resisting
the box you try to put me in
just telling you what i'm all about
and i know i'm gonna get there if i use my way
but please don't mistake this for overconfidence
there really isn't nothing wrong
with the ideas you suggestin'
i think i can handle it from here
like everybody tryin' to figure out
but that does not give you the right to tell me
