I've done everything they said I would
Become everything they said I could
I was raised believing I'm no good
I'm scared I'll never make it out of the hood
But I'm still me
Me
Someone tell me otherwise
Someone feed me velvet lies
Someone hold me, help me get through the night
Look at me I've barely aged
Father, tell me I'll be saved
Find me someone
Point the finger and blame
That isn't me!
Me!
I am everything the voices say
I cry but never do I feel the pain
I'm not you, I'll never be the same
Pinch me or I might fade away
Am I still me?
Me?
Shut the door, And leave me here
I've given into all my fears
If they ask you tell them I've disappeared
They take away everything I give
But no, not once, I never hated it
If I could I'd give my will to live
Don't be like me
Me
