THE LYRICS:
My
name came up you made a sound
That didn’t speak high of me
Yes it hurts, but I can’t let it scratch me
If I came off scary crude or bold
If I’m invisible cause 28 is too old
It hurts
I cannot let it distract me
I
don’t lie or steal I try to keep it real
Well tonight my heart is golden
I’m an honest man I look the best I can
Well tonight my heart is golden
Got an open mind and I often find
I’m mixed in all the wrong ways
And I – I wouldn’t trade this for the world
My
rep is bad and wish you would have formed
your
own opinion - Yes it hurts
I’m looking for some friends here
You said I’m better than ugly but worse than
okay
I could never be ugly as the things you say
Janice said it best “you people are amazing”
Do
I cross your mind anymore?
Yes you do, and everyday
My best interest was never an interest of yours
So I had to throw you away
And the hardest thing that I had to do
Was find the self-respect
To stop chasing you
My baby steps are getting stronger.
