• I tried. I'd lie. I lied.
    Don't deny the fact that you felt something, I had plans to end it long before.
    Before you knew that I was me, can't you see it wasn't meant to be.
    I saw right through that acid smile, and your lack of style.
    You trail through life without a care, man you are never going anywhere!
    I stand corrected when I say, experience has made me this way.
    He seems all up there and stands up tall, but I know that he's bound to fall.
    It's happened before and you just can't change.
    What you had said is in the past.
    At the time I tried to deny the hurtful words escaping into the air.
    But I have grown and now I stand, looking down on who I am.
    I'm proud.
    I'm strong.
    I'm independent, and most of all I'm me.
    The feelings Ithought I had, they were never there.
    Who was I kidding?
    How could I stoop so low?
    Why do I try to convince myself to look into personality, that's not how I roll.
    I have to at least roll in style, c'mon now.
    Think of how much you spend on clothes!
    I think of it nowand cringe, I've been told by many how great I am
    so obviously people were lying to you because you aren't.
    Go ahead and make those smart remarks when I walk past with your friends,
    I'll hold my head up high because I've changed and I'm going places.
    Sure it may seem cool to party and act like an idiot, I know I Iove to do that.
    But I also know that it is time to start growing up and taking on responsibilities.
    And when I'm up and ready, I know that somehow I'll make it,
    even if I need a little, or big push to get me there.
