Every day seems like the day before
Keeping to myself but wanting so much more
I could be a painter
Or in the hall of fame
I can almost here the calling of my name
But when people look at me
That's not what they see
If the world only knew what I could do
They would be astounded
If the world only knew what I could do
I would be surrounded
If the world only knew what I could
Maybe I'd be free
And they would see so much more in me
I put up my guard to deal with fear
When things get to hard then I disappear
I wish I could tell them
And make them understand
Being different wasn't something I had planned
But when people look at me
They don't want to see
If the world only knew what I could do
I would be respected
If the world only knew what I could do
I would not be protected
If the world only knew what I could do
Then I could be free
And they would see all that I have in me.
I would show them all that everyone is different
I would stand up tall instead of run away
If there was no world I'd have nothing standing in my way
And I would be still only me
If the world only knew what I could do
I would shine before me
If the world only knew what I could do then I'd tell a different story
If the world only knew what I could do
Finally they would see
I'm just what I'm supposed to be.
