That Is Not My Name
This one day I came into existence
And I can thank my Mom's persistence
Thanks
Then one day In just about an instant
I no longer needed assistance
But it still stayed
Signed papers it would stain
I might not fully change it
I might just rearrange it
For the moment at hand
It's not in my cards
Didn't plan for this
No I am not ashamed and
I have no one to blame and
I'm not playing a game
It's my life and I want to make it
Hit the brakes
There's been a mistake
How could they have known
If I hadn't yet become my own
It's my fate
But I don't relate
Now that I am grown
Can I have one thing for my own
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
This one day I gave myself some distance
And I can thank my Dad's resistance
Thanks
Then one day I had to stop and listen
There was a piece of me still missin'
My voice was stained
I didn't feel the same
I might not fully change it
I might just rearrange it
For the moment at hand
It's not in my cards
Didn't plan for this
No I am not ashamed and
I have no one to blame and
I'm not playing a game
It's my life and I want to make it
Hit the brakes
There's been a mistake
How could they have known
If I hadn't yet become my own
It's my fate
But I don't relate
Now that I am grown
Can I have one thing for my own
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
So many things were given to me
The day that I was born
I never asked for any of it
But now I own the store
I didn't mind the countless
Papers on the floor
Cause the name that I will sign
Will lead me through the golden door
Hit the brakes
There's been a mistake
How could they have known
If I hadn't yet become my own
It's my fate
But I don't relate
Now that I am grown
Can I have one thing for my own
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
No price, to pay
I still get to keep my birthday
No shame, no blame
As long as you know
That is not my name
And I can thank my Mom's persistence
Thanks
Then one day In just about an instant
