If I told you the world had a shortage of truth
Would you trust me not to lie
Or would you blink away all the words from my mouth
Think there's no point to even try
I'm just ordinary
Lift up this veil
And you'll see my human eyes
I just want you to see that I exist
I just want you to believe that I am here
I am here
Passed over, look away, I'm just a face
And all I do is disappoint
Not the child you wanted but the one you have
I'm sorry to report
I can't be my brother, can't be my cousin
You'll have to settle for less
I just want to be higher once
Can you look at me, and just accept what I have to show
Can you look into your own son's soul
Cause I just want you to see, that I exist
I just want you to believe that I am here
I am here
At this point I'd just take a good job
Hell, lie if you feel you can't say it
Pretend and make me feel special
Criticism in every lesson
And you wonder why I can't do anything
Prophetic words are the ones that crumble me
What the hell do I do now
Please just look at me
I just want you to see, that I exist
I just want you to believe
That I am here
I am here
