I Can Only Be Me
I can see my dreams they are right there, but right now all I can do is stare.
Am I worthy the dreams I long for?
Will I succeed where most everyone says I will fail.
I sometimes feel I’m falling.
Falling down a bottomless well.
I see my life passing me by.
I have to do something with my life before I die.
I look around me and see nothing a head.
My brain works differently, but I rather be normal instead.
I see those around me moving forward and they have found their path, their calling, their way in life.
Oh, how I wish that was me.
I will prove myself wrong, just wait and see.
I can only be one.
I can only be me.
