Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up today, I was thinking I was late
How you gon' learn without mistakes?
I feel like I can't go away yet
They try to act cool, I'm just me
I know I'll never be picture perfect
But can I be myself? Is that okay?
[Verse 2]
I don't know how to stop, clean boy tatted up
Break through the padded lock, rug like Galaga
But I ain't playing no games, me and Josh had a talk
Thought I made the right moves, me and my career not adding up
Met some Christian artists who think that they're celebrities
I went to three award shows and fell asleep
Right in the front row, why they act like they don't know?
Till they need a feature, then I flex like the gun show
This rap thing is overrated, never been a king, no David
You talk about God, it's a guarantee they won't play it
I don't wanna be famous, if that's the cost, you can save it
I ain't gon' pay for your playlist, ha, I'm good
Thought I was great until I went down to Hollywood
Always knew that I'd be fine, yeah
I know God made us one of a kind
Yeah, that's you and I
[Verse 3]
I woke up today, I was thinking I was late
How you gon' learn without mistakes?
I feel like I can't go away yet
They try to act cool, I'm just me
I know I'll never be picture perfect
But can I be myself? Is that okay?
[Verse 4]
I'ma always be myself, I ain't got time to be nobody else
If I listened to everything everyone else said, my life would be a mess
But God said I'm blessed, so I'm gon' claim blessings on my life instead
My God-Father living water, so you know He got bread
Yeah, being different is a super power
It's not a deficiency for you to cower
I want all of us to repeat after me
I'm me, I'm free, and I'm so happy
I'm living out what they said that I couldn't be
Wouldn't be, shouldn't be, 'cause I moved a couple things
Every day, I thank the Lord for His grace
For the plans that He made for my life to be great
Competition with who? I'm the illest being me
And there's too much life to live to let 'em ever get to me
[Verse 5]
I woke up today, I was thinking I was late
How you gon' learn without mistakes?
I feel like I can't go away yet
They try to act cool, I'm just me
I know I'll never be picture perfect
But can I be myself? Is that okay?
[Verse 6]
Is that okay?
Can I be myself? Is that okay?
Can I be myself? Is that okay?
