Remember when I was young You told me I could be whoever I wanted to be Now you're looking at the wrong things Paying mind to the irrelevant past I can't let you rip my innocence from the very foundation that you built Every song is proof that you didn't raise no fool Remem-ber when I was young When you told me I could be anything? Here I am, singing to you There you are, deaf to my words The world sees what you can't Giving in to doubt is your best hand I'll fight for you too, in the depth of your disregard Here I Am I can't waste this spiritual gift It's not mine to waste Here I am, singing to you There you are, deaf to my words I can't let you rip my innocence from the very foundation that you built
