The shades gone up
Mothers staring down
She dont know where hes been
Or how long he's been out

She said "Boy im tired of waiting up while your out with your friends"
He said "Mom im tired and im living my life the best way that I can"

Cause im trying to be somebody
Im not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine im living
Dont you know me? I wont ever let you down

The day has come
The sun is moving on
She dont know where hell go
Or when hes coming home

She said "Son take care, dont let your dreams get too far out of sight"
He said "I love you now, dont worry about me you know ill be fine"

Cause im trying to be somebody
Im not trying to be somebody else

This life is mine im living
Dont you know me? I wont ever let you down
No
Im not trying to be somebody else
Dont you know me? I wont ever let you
I wont ever let you

What they say
What they know
What they think wont ever bring me down
This life is mine and I am my own

Im trying to be somebody
Im not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine I lead
Don't you know me?

Im trying to be somebody
Im not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine im living
Dont you know me? I wont ever let you down
Yeahhh
Im not trying to be somebody else
Dont you know me? I wont ever let you down
I wont be nobody else
This life is mine and i am my own

Perfect Song,  A lil out of place, making it PERFECT.
Especially for you. Enjoy.
