[Verse 1]
[00:02.15]
[00:03.50]Everything I am, and everything I want to be
[00:08.70]I put it in your hands, you could open up to me
[00:15.00]Everything I am, and everything I want to be
[00:21.07]I put it in your hands, you could open up to me
[00:27.04]Oh don't we ever get beyond this wall
[00:33.17]I am no role model, I am not Mr. Perfect
[00:35.95]Been bitten a couple of times and I did deserve it
[00:38.98]Everyday livin' and learnin' through these written verses
[00:42.03]My life is a sacrifice, I wonder is it worth it?
[00:45.21]People can change, I'm living physical proof
[00:47.53]I'm not important, or special or different from you
[00:50.31]To other people, I may seem like a good adviser
[00:53.92]But to myself I feel like a dirty womanizer
[00:56.99]I am just a man, I will never be a celebrity
[00:59.67]That is a mantra I will cling to the death of me
[01:02.61]Don't wanna feed my kids the very treachery they fed to me
[01:05.65]Preferably the aim is equality eventually
[01:08.59]Don't relegate me below, or elevate me above to you
[01:11.64]Needless to say, in either place I'm uncomfortable
[01:14.53]I treat you as an equal, I'm simply a man
[01:17.33]Your brother in humanity is everything that I am
[01:33.28][01:21.17]Everything I am, and everything I want to be
[01:38.87][01:26.64]I put it in your hands, you could open up to me
[01:45.28]Oh don't we ever get beyond this wall
[01:50.80]Listen close to the words that were sang in the chorus
[01:53.71]There's a big difference between fans and supporters
[01:56.82]Never asked to be scrutinized or consumerized
[02:00.31]Or treated differently to any other human life
[02:03.09]Most don't, but some do and it saddens me
[02:05.84]Force fed celebrity to subdue our humanity
[02:08.69]See the false image depicted and think it's purity
[02:11.62]When beneath that image they hold more insecurities
[02:14.67]Than you do, but sometimes it's hard to tell who's who
[02:17.91]There's more to life than Twitter followers and YouTube views
[02:21.23]And if I came across like I was cocky I am sorry
[02:23.58]You were born original so please don't die a copy
[02:26.53]Don't relegate me below, or elevate me above to you
[02:29.65]Needless to say, in either place I'm uncomfortable
[02:32.68]I treat you as an equal, I'm simply a man
[02:35.23]Your brother in humanity is everything that I am
[02:39.20]Everything I am, and everything I want to be
[02:44.59]I put it in your hands, you could open up to me
[02:50.53]Everything I am, and everything I want to be
[02:56.51]I put it in your hands, you could open up to me
[03:02.48]Oh don't we ever get beyond this wall
