Who are you supposed to be now What are you trying to prove you’re crying the blues you’re dying to lose you’re fighting to choose you wanna live the life of someone else You don’t wanna take a chance with the hand that you’ve been dealt in this world, Everything is unfair I don’t like what I see when I look in the mirror Maybe I’ll just become you steal your identity, alter reality everything is sure to be fine
cause I don’t have to ever face what’s really mine, keep on hiding all my problems down deep inside Oh, what a life that would be I get to be free, but then again who am I, you or me One day you’ll wake up and realize your life is camouflauged into a lie The true you is buried down in your soul dying to get out and live life once more
I can’t run forever I can’t hide whenever I feel helpless on my own
It wasn’t good enough you couldn’t live it up And so you traded your life and stepped into mine You take a sip from my cup savor every drop, as you drink of the wine, a life so divine Denied manipulation of your life-long destiny, be who you wanna be it’s just a fantasy Make the most of life you’ve been given Be yourself, step up and start living
Don’t want what another man’s got cause if you got what he’s got you might not still want, so what then I’m not the man you think I am Got problems too I cry and bleed just like you Well it’s a new day, so take another spin I’ts time to break away and start all over again I won’t take it for granted don’t wanna masquerade Stand up and be counted won’t let it slip away
I can’t run forever I can’t hide whenever I deny the man I know
If only I could see, if only I could be If only I could find what’s locked inside of me I’d set the record straight I’d make my getaway I’d reinvent myself into what God made into what God made
Look in your mind you buried so deeply inside cause you didn’t believe your life was the best it could be Oh no, there must be something to it It wasn’t all that bad when I knew it So stop looking to the left, to the right Consequences take you for another ride Don’t look down, look around, open your eyes, step into the light, the spirit inside don’t wanna hide
