All I Can Do.
it takes all I have to do what I do and all I can do is be me
and no matter what I do, people will only see what they want to see
bad things I have done and bad choices I have made
but on every mistake or wrong doing, the price in full I have paid
I don't ask for anyone to forget, just for some kind of a break
just something to happen so a better life I can make
not asking for an easy trip, not wanting a free ride
something I can work hard at in which I can build inner pride
life is a long, hard trip, a trip we all have to take
with many paths and choices we have to make
yet no matter what path I may choose to take or
what I choose to be
there is something that must be remembered,
all I can do is be me
