Just Like Me

As I look back upon my life And what it might have been And see how fast it all past by It’s almost like a dream It started with much promise Though it had it’s share of bumps And now I sit here reminiscing With my bruises scars and lumps I could have been a comic But I wasn’t very funny I could have been a playboy But I never had the money I could have been a rockstar But I couldn’t sing a note Might have been the president But i never got a vote Could have been a carpenter But I never had the tools Could have a banker But I never liked those fools Could have been a model But i never had the looks Could have been a teacher But i never read those books Could have been a moviestar But i never learned to act But what I am is all i am And baby that’s a fact The moral of the story Is a simple as can be Go and try be what you want Or you’ll end up just like me -- Most of us are afraid to fly Because we fear we’ll fall But better to try flying than Continue to just crawl So spread your wings and take a chance Because life can be quite brief And maybe all it ever took Was a little self belief
