Everything I Am - Live on Grafton Street

I wanna start a freestyle
But I don't know how to rap
I gotta take it to the next level if I wanna bust a cap
On my insecurities
I don't know how to wrighte
All the lyrics come too late
All the expression comes in light
I'm not a heavyweight, I'm just a small fry in need
Of a little love
A little corny indeed
I guess I'm just a human trying to make his way through the feed
We're all given to shut our mouths up and breed
And that's the way of the world, the stronger get stronger
And the weakest die out
Only hoping that the hunger for more
Would be satiated before
Their lives got taken away
To some far off excuse to the poor
To justify the divide
Between the small and the mighty
It's so big I'm saying what the fuck
I mean crickey
It's unlikely we'll ever see a change in our times
Unless we start being kind
Leave our old ways behind

Who do you take me for?
Even I'm not too sure
Of everything I Am
And everything I want to be
How could you know what's best
If you don't know the rest
Of Everything I Am
And everything I want to be?

And where do I fit in?
A kid with a grin doesn't make much of a difference
If you know what I ken
All the kin that I love
Not that many yet to be honest
But if I try to solve the case
Try to get on it
I mighty make a few mates
Bandits and reprobates
Rejects and inmates of the prison of fates
Ones that have fallen
For no other good reason that they didn't get food on their plates
And we're stuck here
Complaining about who He hates
Westboro of Vatican
Priest, pastor or pope
You haven't know God till you've know his absence
Oh
How can you buy into the fact that he'll be there
When we're the ones that're supposed to care
For our brothers and sisters everywhere
Hey
That's what I said
That's what He said
I'm only paraphrasing
If I need love, I give love
It's amazing how you've all blinded yourselves
To what you don't like to read
But if that book's so amazing
Why does it make a father bleed?

Who do you take me for?
Even I'm not too sure
Of everything I Am
And everything I want to be
How could you know what's best
If you don't know the rest
Of Everything I Am
And everything I want to be?

What does it matter
You all think you know
Would anyone listen to this one man freak show?
You gotta extricate yourselves from the bullshit that's all got us
But look! We're doing better
The system's out of practice
To me you're getting brighter and brighter everyday
And the lighter you feel
The stronger the words you say
The fighter in you won't give up I know
It's okay
Just don't forget to pack before your long journey
I wanna save the world
But does it really need saving?
Problems are meant to be solved
But won't we always have them?
Our times are short
So shouldn't we appreciate the vacuum?
With no darkness there's no light
And no void, no appreciation
So now I'm gonna travel
Cover the whole world if I have to
I hope I get outta my mind
No more daydreaming
That's true
A humble dude named Kay is who I'd like to be
Nothing more, nothing less
Just a little bit of me

So who do you take me for?
Even I'm not too sure
Of everything I Am
And everything I want to be
How could you know what's best
If you don't know the rest
Of Everything I Am
And everything I want to be?

I'm Everything I Am
And everything I want to be
I'm Everything I Am
And everything I want to be
I wanna be
