Neglected efforts, to my dismay
(I guess I'll never be enough, I guess I'll never be enough)
No matter what I do, I know I'll never get you to approve
(I guess I'll never be enough, I guess I'll never be enough)
I chased for excellence, yet you treated me with prejudice
(I guess I'll never be enough, I guess I'll never be enough)
And you were unaware, you're the reason why I've always
Looked down on myself
Where's the affection that I never got from you?
You made me bite off more than I can chew
Still I tried, I never disobeyed
Maybe in your eyes there's nothing I can prove
And all the times that I tried to make you proud
I always end up disappointing you"
