I Need To Be Lyrics

If you listen close keep your head above your toes

You hear the sound come through tell me make your next move

Yes I know what I know and it really goes to show

It's all around me waiting trying to find a way

I got a wicked mind and very little time

To tell you what I need and to stifle this greed

I can't escape it it's fine but I know that deep inside

I got to fight back, right track, got to get me free

I need to be

I need to be

If you step too far just take a look at where you are

And you will find me waiting, trying to find a way

To have my mind made up, and some liquor in my cup

To keep me fine yeah, I can't

Be who they want me to be

I got a life to live, and so much left to give

I can tell what I need in the face of defeat

I can't be right all the time, but I know that deep inside

I got to fight back, right track, got to get me free

I need to be

I need to be

I don't want to be another face in the magazine

Just dying trying to chase the dream but never made it to the door

A million times I tried to find some balance in this life

But all the lows and highs aint got me right can't take it anymore

If lying stealing doping and dealing is what it will take to get me this feeling

Might as well leave this music and healing step back in to line

But that aint in the cards I'm singing there aint no round of applause

And when the radio finally plays I know exactly what they'll say

I need to be

Oh I need to be
