you set bar too high
your expectations have become my failure
a shell you see so shallow but deep inside
my heart beats just the same as yours
the same blood through these clean veins
can`t you see that i`m in pain
it seems my life is always under par
what can i say to change your mind about what i am
others can see what was hidden from your sight
a kid with courage and heart and his eyes open wide
an inner beauty and a bright light
my focus is not yours
i set my sights on new horizons and let my soul have scope
can`t you see that i have my own dreams
and though they`re not the same as yours
they hold value to me, tell me why can`t you see
i`m not the means to mend your past regrets
what can i say to change your mind about what i am
others can see what was hidden from your sight
a kid with courage and heart and his eyes open wide
inner beauty and a bright light
judged for how i look, not for the good that i have done
i try the best i can, but it seems that i`m not the perfect son
shaped by God, and my volition
and the seeds that you have sown
but i ask you once again
when does my life become my own? Send " Under Par" Ringtone to your Cell
