I'm Here, I am Real, I am Me

Everybody wants to find their place in this world
Everybody wants to matter
Everybody needs to have their moment to shine
Before the illusion shatters

Everybody needs to have somebody to love
Everybody needs to be loved
Everybody's trying to make the best of this life
But it's hard when push comes to shove

I know that it can be hard
When life deals you a bad card
Why should anyone think I am special
I'll be damned if I give up
When I'm low I rise above
I'm here
I am real

There is no one else like me
There's no one else I wanna be
I have the strength that I have been searching for
I have passed this self doubt test
I think this says it the best
I'm here
I am real
I am me

You see a girl and wonder what your life could've been
Hindsight is always clearer
You see a boy and thank the lord that you're not with him
The love at home you hold much dearer

Would I be better off if I was like the rich man
Would my days and nights be happier
Is my own selfishness causing me to write with this pen
In the long run what really matters

I know that it can be hard
When life deals you a bad card
Why should anyone think I am special
I'll be damned if I give up
When I'm low I rise above
I'm here
I am real

There is no one else like me
There's no one else I wanna be
I have the strength that I have been searching for
I have passed this self doubt test
I think this says it the best
I'm here
I am real
I am me

I know that it can be hard
When life deals you a bad card
Why should anyone think I am special
I'll be damned if I give up
When I'm low I rise above
I'm here
I am real

There is no one else like me
There's no one else I wanna be
I have the strength that I have been searching for
I have passed this self doubt test
I think this says it the best
I'm here
I am real
I am me
