I ain't the best, I ain't the worst, won't be the last, sure ain't the first
A man who ever had a dream that finally got a break
So don't take this wrong, I know I'm blessed
But what you see is what you get
My own interpretation of what's missing most these days Identity, a real point of view
A little honesty, things we all could use I don't think the world's all bad the life is cheap and love don't last
In fact I think it's just a few who'd like us to believe that's true
I think most are sick and tired of all the hip and uninspired
Saying cool is in and good is out
I bet I've got your attention now oh and if I don't then
You're the one I'm talkin' to, you're the one I'm talkin' to I'm tired of seeing youthful eyes growing up desensitized
By what they're seeing on TV, believing that's reality
That *** is love and life's a game, where all the winners look the same
Designer jeans, expensive shoes, imported cars and attitudes
What happened to individuality the right to choose your own destiny? I don't think the world's all bad the life is cheap and love don't last
In fact I think it's just a few who'd like us to believe that's true
I think most are sick and tired of all the hip and uninspired
Saying cool is in and good is out
I bet I've got your attention now oh and if I don't then
Then you're the one I'm talkin' to, you're the one I'm talkin' to I don't believe the world's all bad the life is cheap and love don't last
That cool is in and good is out, have I got your attention now?
'Cause if I don't then, you're the one I'm talkin' to
You're the one I'm talkin' to
