Well I ain't the kind of man Who'd turn and run from a fight Got no money in my pockets All I carry these days is my old man's knife I ain't sweating for my wages I'm just fighting demons, raging in the dark Between memories and broken dreams I ain't sure there's a real good place to start Well I'm pretty good at playing roles I've been acting like I'm something that I'm not for a while I've been running from my nature Trying to change it But turns out there's plenty parts of me That ain't worth saving I'm a no good son of a Preacher man With a smoking habit In a one piece band Not a clue in the world what I'm doing Or where I'm bound And I'm running awful low on Give a damn's And I'm trying to learn to accept who I am I ain't asking for approval anymore Papa, I'm grown now I'm gonna make you proud I'm gonna make you proud Well I had a dream the other night that I was standing in a stage In the shadows of the crowd I swear to God I saw your face You came to me with open arms And told me you were proud of who I was But I woke up alone again And I can't face the man that I've become Still I'm pretty good at playing roles I've been acting like I'm something That I'm not for a while I've been running from my nature Trying to change it But turns out there's plenty parts of me Ain't worth saving I'm a no good son of a Preacher man With a smoking habit In a one piece band Not a clue in the world what I'm doing Or where I'm bound And I'm running awful low on Give a damn's And I'm trying to learn to accept who I am I ain't asking for approval anymore Papa, I'm grown now I'm gonna make you proud I'm gonna make you proud
