They used to tell me

I wasn't smart enough,
Said I'll never make,

I don't resemble the stars enough.
Man, I'm just trying to get

my heart to pump,
Gave my all every time,

I guess my all wasn't enough.
They said I talk too much,

they talk enough,
Told me I should change,

but never said

what I should change it to.
Man, I'm just trying to

play the game with you,
So when you go

and see I'm just me,

I ain't the same as you.

I just wanna give my all,

the rise and fall,
The world.
I just wanna leave my mark

upon your heart,
Oh world.

What do I got to say?

How do I got to pray?
What do I got to do? Tell me.
Who do I got to be?

What do you want from me?
What do I got to prove?
No matter what I do,
I'm not breaking for you, tell me.
What do I got to give,

how do I gotta live,
When it's not enough for you?
It's not enough for you.

Well, my first mistake

was tryna please everybody,
Only to realize I ain't need

anybody (nobody).
But all I ever wanted

was acceptance,
'Til I accepted myself,

now I can check

that off my checklist.
I am no longer

checking for your guest list,
Or where I land on your best list.
I look at my reflection

and it tells me who the best is,
So I could never do it like the rest did.

I just wanna give my all,

the rise and fall,
The world.
I just wanna leave my mark

upon your heart,
Oh world.

What do I got to say?

How do I got to pray?
What do I got to do? Tell me.
Who do I got to be?

What do you want from me?
What do I got to prove?
No matter what I do,
I'm not breaking for you, tell me.
What do I got to give,

how do I gotta live,
When it's not enough for you?
When it's not enough for you.

Let's go...

I know they wanna see me break,
I know they'd rather see me fall,
And that's the very reason why,
I'm a rise above it all.
They used to say I wasn't a star,
Said I wasn't going very far,
Well, now I'm shining like a star,
And I'm screaming out my cause,
Can you call me back tomorrow.

What do I got to say?

How do I got to pray?
What do I got to do? Tell me.
Who do I got to be?

What do you want from me?
What do I got to prove?
No matter what I do,
I'm not breaking for you, tell me.
What do I got to give,

how do I gotta live,
When it's not enough for you?

What do I got to say?

How do I got to pray?
What do I got to do? Tell me.
Who do I got to be?

What do you want from me?
What do I got to prove?
No matter what I do,
I'm not breaking for you, tell me.
What do I got to give,

how do I gotta live,
When it's not enough for you?
It's not enough for you.

It's not enough for you,
It's not enough for you,
When it's not enough for you.
