Seth Alley - Be Yourself Lyrics

My dreams keep me up at night
Mind racing in the tv light
I talk to God from the edge of the bed
Begging for a song that I haven't written yet
'Cause I'm valued by my success, no rest
If I wanna be the best
Give 'em what they want without being too different
Or it's like you don't exist

So I sing about small towns and dirt roads
A love that I had that I had to let go
There's only so many ways you can say it though, but
We live and die by the radio
So look like him, sound like them
Act like that if you wanna fit in
'Cause we all just want to fit in
Yeah, we wanna fit it in

Yeah I want to be great
But I ain't 'cause I fake what I'm made
Yeah I think that it's time for a change
Stop waiting on the world for help
Stop worrying about everyone else
Be yourself

Yeah, music's magic and I'm an addict
Addicted to the reaction I get
When people relate to what I'm saying
In a song that took years to make, hey
But these days, sometimes music don't feel that way
'Cause I'm too busy worried 'bout what other people think
That I can't think, before I start I'm caged
I heard a great man say
"Don't focus on the end result
If you want to win the race, pace
Pray and be ready when the open the gate"

Yeah I want to be great
But I ain't 'cause I fake what I'm made
Yeah I think that it's time for a change
Stop waiting on the world for help
Stop worrying 'bout everyone else
Be yourself

(Be yourself)

Yeah I want to be great
But I ain't 'cause I fake what I'm made
Yeah I think that it's time for a change
Stop waiting on the world for help
Stop worrying 'bout everyone else
Be yourself
