13 Times
If you give me a dozen tries
I will take 13 times to get it
That's just the way I am
I might follow your advice
Probably not until
I've learned the lesson
With my own hands
I want to grow, all alone
So I'll feel it in my bones
I got to fall and skin my knees
So I'll know what I do when I bleed
I know, I know that you want me to be myself
So you got to let me be
Let me be me
I won't grow if I don't know
And I don't know what I don't know
And I won't know what I don't know
If I don't let it go and let it in
And if I grow the way the trees grow
If I flow the way the breeze flows
I'll be strong
I'll be free
I'll be fine
And, I won't grow if I don't know
And I don't know what I don't know
And I won't know what I don't know
If I don't let it go and let it in
And if I grow the way the trees grow
If I flow the way the breeze flows
I'll be strong
And I'll be free
And I'll be fine
If you give me a dozen tries
I will take 13 times to get it
That's just the way I am
I might follow your advice
But, probably not until
I've learned the lesson
With my own hands
I want to grow, all alone
Oh, so that I'll feel it in my bones
I've got to fall and skin my knees
So that I will know what I do when I bleed
I know, I know that you want me to be happy
So you got to let me be
Let me be me
I will take 13 times to get it
That's just the way I am
I might follow your advice
Probably not until
I've learned the lesson
With my own hands
I want to grow, all alone
So I'll feel it in my bones
I got to fall and skin my knees
So I'll know what I do when I bleed
I know, I know that you want me to be myself
So you got to let me be
Let me be me
I won't grow if I don't know
And I don't know what I don't know
And I won't know what I don't know
If I don't let it go and let it in
And if I grow the way the trees grow
If I flow the way the breeze flows
I'll be strong
I'll be free
I'll be fine
And, I won't grow if I don't know
And I don't know what I don't know
And I won't know what I don't know
If I don't let it go and let it in
And if I grow the way the trees grow
If I flow the way the breeze flows
I'll be strong
And I'll be free
And I'll be fine
If you give me a dozen tries
I will take 13 times to get it
That's just the way I am
I might follow your advice
But, probably not until
I've learned the lesson
With my own hands
I want to grow, all alone
Oh, so that I'll feel it in my bones
I've got to fall and skin my knees
So that I will know what I do when I bleed
I know, I know that you want me to be happy
So you got to let me be
Let me be me
