have you ever had a phase
or is it only me
to where you try so hard
to be what you cannot be

it is'nt in your life
on any given day
but yet you are confused
with the role that you will play

to simply be yourself
just was'nt in the cards
you're losing your ability
as you simply try to hard

your feelings & your pride
are lying on a shelf
because someone has convinced you
you cannot be yourself

so put away the mask
of being what your not
lose the false images
& hold on to what you've got

have you ever had a phase
or is it only me
to where you try so hard
to be what you cannot be

it is'nt in your life
on any given day
but yet you are confused
with the role that you will play

to simply be yourself
just was'nt in the cards
you're losing your ability
as you simply try to hard

your feelings & your pride
are lying on a shelf
because someone has convinced you
you cannot be yourself

so put away the mask
of being what your not
lose the false images
& hold on to what you've got
