Maybe I could live without a dollar
Be who I wanna be, take care of my momma
Leave the past behind me and take care of my child
Kinda wild all that I had lost gave me this divide
Like autumn leaves in breeze I float and carry seed
Of my success I'm myself when I believe
In myself and I receive all the energy that I breathe
Into this world its yours so keep it if you never cease
A man can lose himself in everything that made him
And every second he can break again and be forsaken
But it takes a certain kind of man to never be shaken
Just remaining true to himself always carrying the weight Uh
You stand tall, in wind you never fall
Defend all that you own, they pretend that you're not strong
Instead you right wrongs, you mend and carry on
Truth of the matter you can be all that you want, belong
Tell me I could ey
Be all I could, I know that I should
Say its all good
But, you tried to hold me back and that is sad because
I do not accept disrespect from those that mattered
I never let what you expect dictate my manners
And If I'm blessed with patience don't mistake my balance
I can turn my back and walk away escape all the madness
Yeah you hated all my sadness, you loved my charm and wit
You hated burdens I carry, you wanted me to break
I'm not resentful, I guess that you can say
I'd rather walk away then stand today and play the games you play
I'm clear minded Focused and driven every day,
I feel kindness, and god is my witness I will stay
True to who I am, I choose to step this way
Backstreet Boy, yeah corny, but I want it that a way
Jokes aside I step inside my mind its mental
Took a ride inside my life, all that I can do
Is feel alive all that I am and what I can do
Is to send you, a solemn thank you, I don't regret you
