Something inside is rising And I can’t hide it It just occurred to me
Couldn’t ever really seem to find it I was blinded By what I was told to be
I tried to rule the world With guilty hands I tried to make amends Oh, but I can’t
I tried to live that life The best that I could But it’s so hard to love yourself When you don’t think that you should
So I’ll give myself some peace Something’s come over me That nothing’s what I need
Something inside is calling And now I’m talking To the man I used to be
Love has many different colors You can’t paint no other It’s only your masterpiece
I tried to rule the world (I’m ready) With guilty hands (I’m ready) I tried to make amends (I’m ready) Oh, but I can’t (I’m ready)
I tried to live that life (I’m ready) The best that I could (I’m ready) But it’s so hard to love yourself (I’m ready) When you don’t think that you should (I’m ready)
