Be Somebody The shades gone up Mothers staring down She don't know where he's been Or how long he's been out
She said 'Boy i'm tired of waiting up while your out with your friends' He said 'Mom im tired and im living my life the best way that I can'
Cause i'm trying to be somebody I'm not trying to be somebody else This life is mine i'm living Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down
The day has come The sun is moving on She don't know where he'll go Or 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 somebody I'm not trying to be somebody else This life is mine i'm living Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down No
I'm not trying to be somebody else Don't you know me? I wont ever let you I wont ever let you
What they say What they know What they think wont ever bring me down This life is mine and I am my own
I'm trying to be somebody I'm not trying to be somebody else This life is mine I lead Don't you know me?
I'm trying to be somebody I'm not trying to be somebody else This life is mine i'm living Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down Yeahhh I'm not trying to be somebody else Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down I wont be nobody else This life is mine and i am my own
