paroles de chanson Here I Am - Charlie Winston

I've never been an academic, I never did well at school
Never made the grade like we're all told we're supposed to do
I was slow and to cope I would joke and be a teachers fool
Just to hide it
He said, I'll never come to much, I'll never be no good
I didn't fit in the vision of the curriculum like I should
Who say's a test is the best way to get us understood?
I don't think so. Don't think so, no.
Here I am. Tell me, what I gotta lose?
Tell me, what I gotta prove?
Here I am. Ain't no win without a fail
So let me fail forward, hey. Here I am.
I said I was slow but now I know another point of view
Turns out, I let every little thing
Sink in until I know it through in through
Ain't it funny to kill a mockingbird are words that we learn at school
On compassion?
Well, here I am. Tell me, what I gotta lose?
Tell me, what I gotta prove?
Here I am. Ain't no win without a fail
So let me fail forward, hey. Here I am.
Each day, I make a bet that the voices in my head
Won't always understand, or take me as I am
I didn't read a lit of books as a kid until my table's turned
At 21 I began to eat up the whole shelf filling up myself in the words
Of other misfits looking for a home in a lonely world
Now, here I am. Tell me, what I gotta lose?
Tell me, what I gotta prove?
Here I am. Ain't no win without a fail
So let me fail forward, hey. Here I am.
So let me fail... So let me fail forward.
Here I am
So let me fail... So let me fail forward, hey.
