When I was young I used to struggle with my ego I was a loner so I didn't have amigos I used to hit the gym and try to get real swolle Even grew a lot of hair and thought about some cornrows I saw myself as one big flaw From my feet all the way up to my nappy fro And it made me feel low So I tried to be somebody else for everyone's approval, yep I thank God that eventually I got a stronger hold on all my insecurities And on the real can't nobody be A better me than I can be of me you see I try to love the way that I was made and what I see In the mirror every day and feed my self-esteem And I repeat this chorus loudly So come on sing it with me on the count of three I'ma be me Life is full of bumps and bruises But the pain is never useless Even when it knocks me to the floor And I used to make excuses For all my failures and my falls But every time that I get up I learn a little bit more I know that shortcomings happen and they're never planned But I also know deep in my heart a failure isn't what I am I'm gonna keep pushin' cause there's no other option I can see And when I succeed, I'll still be able to say confidently I'ma be me I remember when I wasn't tryin' to play tough Hangin' with old souls and buyin' Now n' Laters Braided up cornrows as sharp as a razor Look how she raised her Gettin' in tune with them haters I ain't care about fittin' in My mind back then Wasn't focused on new rims Or big black Benz Try and stand out Make it big without a hand out Startin' to care now, about those no longer friends now Hopped off the bandwagon No longer intrigued by pants saggin' I wanna be known, my friends braggin Bout how I went from nothin' to somethin' Not focused on materialistic assumptions My minds the truth out the bunch And I'm just tryin' to be a better me Focused on shows and sellin' seats My dreams bigger than reality Stay mad at me Cause I'm actually doin' what I said that I was pursuin' Since a youngin' back when I was a student I'm the movement
