to fall in love, well it ain't easy
to call her bluff, well it ain't easy
I tried to be her friend; I garanteed the end
I tried to be her man she wants; she just wants a friend
to stand apart, well it ain't easy
to make your mark, well it ain't easy
I used to be the bigger fish in this ole pond
until the pond became an ocean and now I'm gone
they say the chick cannot be helped from Its egg
but I need a hand if I'm gonna stand on my own to legs
I used to be the bigger fish in this ole pond
I'm just a guppie just trying to hold on
so wake up early; make more money
don't get lonely; It's not easy
talk more manly; feed your family
shake your body It's not easy
serve your country; walk a many
don't remind me It's not easy
to fall in love, well It ain't easy
to be enough, well It ain't easy
