Growing up I figured out I'll never be like you Early on I tried it out, but couldn't see it through Along the way I found my way, and still it's not enough You'll never see what I see, and now I've given up
(Chorus) Please don't leave me now I'm chasing footprints to keep up with you somehow All I need is for you to believe
I chose to walk a different path I could never fill your shoes I tried to find the middle line It's not good enough for you All I wanted was some happiness, and feel free to live my life I let you down, you let me down, and it tears me up inside
(Chorus)
I wanna make you proud I've gotta make you proud I've gotta stay true to myself I've gotta stay true
