I Changed Myself To Make You a Better Person

I'm struggling to succeed and leave a name anyone can admire and easily remember... when I'm no longer alive, but in a cold grave. All have seen a sweeter, kinder image of me: generous, compassionate and tolerable... but nobody has ever discovered the real me. I changed myself to make you a better person; I didn't make sacrifices to step in front of the line... never thought of earning affection and admiration.
