Be Somebody
The shades gone upMothers staring downShe don't know where he's beenOr how long he's been out
She said 'Boy I'm tired of waiting up while your out with your friends'He said 'Mom I'm trying and I'm living my life the best way that I can'
Cause I'm trying to be somebodyI'm not trying to be somebody elseThis life is mine I'm livingDon't you know me? I wont ever let you down
The day has comeThe sun is moving onShe don't know where he'll goOr when he's coming home
She said 'Son take care, don't let your dreams get too far out of sight'He said 'I love you now, don't worry about me you know I'll be fine'
Cause I'm trying to be somebodyI'm not trying to be somebody elseThis life is mine I'm livingDon't you know me? I wont ever let you downNoI'm not trying to be somebody elseDon't you know me? I wont ever let youI wont ever let you
What they sayWhat they knowWhat they think wont ever bring me downThis life is mine and I am my own
I'm trying to be somebodyI'm not trying to be somebody elseThis life is mine I leadDon't you know me?
