GOOD ENOUGH

YESTERDAY I WATCHED THE VIDEOS
FROM WHEN I WAS A BOY
I HAVE TO SAY, WELL IT TOOK ME BY SURPRISE
I HEARD THAT LITTLE BOY SAY
"I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO SEE HOW STUPID I AM"
IT MADE ME WONDER "WHO TOLD HIM ALL THOSE LIES?"

I CARRY IT WITH ME EVERYDAY
BUT IT'S TIME TO LET IT GO...

I KNOW THAT I AM GOOD ENOUGH
I WISH THAT YOU COULD UNDERSTAND
THE PRICE THAT I HAVE PAID TO BE A MAN

IT COULD HAVE BEEN MY BIG BROTHER
CUZ I WAS JUST A PAIN IN HIS ASS
BUT MAYBE MY MOM, CUZ TO HER I COULD NEVER DO THINGS RIGHT
MY CHEATING DAD WENT ALONG WITH IT
TO KEEP THE PEACE IN THE HOUSE
NOW I'M LEFT WITH THIS BURDEN AND STAGE-FRIGHT

I WAS A CHAMPION OF NOTHING
DURING MY SCHOOL CAREER
HYPERACTIVE, I WAS A GUINEA PIG FOR THE LITTLE WHITE PILLS
"SUPER BRIGHT, BUT HE DOESN'T APPLY HIMSELF"
IS WHAT MY TEACHERS SAID
THEY WROTE ME OFF, ANOTHER KID LOST TO THE SOCIAL ILLS

I CARRY IT WITH ME EVERYDAY
BUT IT'S TIME TO LET IT GO

I KNOW THAT I AM GOOD ENOUGH
I WISH THAT YOU COULD UNDERSTAND
THE PRICE THAT I HAVE PAID TO BE A MAN

I DON'T HAVE TO PROVE MYSELF
OR JUSTIFY MY WORTH
WHAT I AM IS ONLY WHO I AM
IT'S WHO I AM
ONLY WHO I AM

A PART OF ME WAS STOLEN BY MY COUSINS,
WHEN I WAS ONLY 10
THREW ME FACE DOWN ON THE BED,
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING
THESE SCARS ARE LIKE A MAGNET
THEY ATTRACT MORE AND MORE SHAME
BUT I AIN'T GONNA PLAY THE VICTIM, I GOT NO ONE TO BLAME

THE VOICES INSIDE MY HEAD
WELL THEY ALMOST TOOK ME DOWN
BUT I FOUND THE SOUND OF SILENCE
THAT LED ME TO FORGIVENESS

I KNOW THAT I AM GOOD ENOUGH
I WISH THAT YOU COULD UNDERSTAND
THE PRICE THAT I HAVE PAID TO BE A MAN

I DON'T HAVE TO PROVE MYSELF
OR JUSTIFY MY WORTH
WHAT I AM IS ONLY WHO I AM
IT'S WHO I AM
ONLY WHO I AM
I AM WHO I AM
I AM WHO I AM
I'M FINE THE WAY I AM
