just me

Brian Mcknight

This is me, I write the songs
I try to be right more than I'm wrong
I play the game, albeit not that well
I've done some things of which I'll never tell

When things are good I stay the same
When things get bad, I don't complain
I may not be all that you hoped I would be
But I am just me

I come up short all over town
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down
When I give back I take a little for myself
I'm just like anybody else...

I play the fool, have but one vice
I am not always very nice
I live my life on stage, on cue
I do the things I have to do

Of this I'm sure, life can be shit
I wouldn't change one day of it
I may not be all that you hoped I would be
I know I'm not the best you'll ever see
I may not be all that you hoped I would be
But I am just me
