All of Me Video (MV)

You held me inside your hands
I fit right inside those plans
To carry on your legacy
But then I became a man
And you didn't understand
Why I had tossed it all away
Or so you say
But I have my own view of life
Your plans and mine don't coincide
And I've got to see my story out
But God knows
I still want to make you proud
It's you, Dad, it's me
How can I be both the people
We want to see
I choose to believe
We'll find I'm just the person
We really need
You had the thought
That in time I'd see it your way
Be a man of faith eight days a week
Well, truth is
I don't believe in God on a Sunday
I've tried to talk, he never speaks
And I see the way you try to hide
How much it's eating you inside
Sometimes I wish I could pretend
But God knows
I'm not that kind of man
It's you, girl, it's me
How can I be both the people
We want to see
I choose to believe
We'll find I'm just the person
We really need
I used to check my mouth
I'd go along with the crowd
Whatever you want to see
That's the person I'll be
I'm here to help you out
I hid the bits of me
You didn't seem to need
With every person I met
I held more of them back
In my attempt to please
I thought my better half
Would make a better man
But now I know the truth
To give my all to you
It takes all of me
It's you, but it's me
And I've got to be the man
I want to be
I choose to believe
We'll find he's just the person
We really need
We'll find I'm just the person
We really need
