What's a Name

What's a name what's a name when you say it sounds too much like a game
Can't tell if it's right when you say it feels too much like a fight
Then you tell me that I'm wrong got to say it got to sing it like a song
What if I can't pronounce why'd you look when I didn't even shout

So what if we said
The names in our heads
Why did they choose
The way I feel in my shoes

You always say that I don't look my name
But give it time I will show you the way I am
I want to be the best of my name
A memory that lives far beyond my time

Got a name in my head and it's stuck don't matter if they're dead
Because it's written in their books can you take it can you make what they took
Fading memories in our minds can't see it can't reach it through the times
But that don't mean you shouldn't try build your name make a sound before you die

So what if we said
The names in our heads
Why did they choose
The way I feel in my shoes

You always say that I don't look my name
But give it time I will show you the way I am
I want to be the best of my name
A memory that lives far beyond my time
Growing older losing grip of my days
I feel my dreams moving away from me
So say my name say it out loud
Hold it close remember the way I am
