Текст песни Somebody - Al Jacobi

Stop trying to be everything

They don't love you
They don't love you
Despite all the things you want for them
They don't want you
I done warned you
They don't want you
No matter how much you hold on to them
They ain't got you

Look at you, beautiful
I don't know if you hate yourself, I just assume you do
Cause let's face it, today it's, well...
Not unusual
I refuse to get too used to it though, you've been used before
But at least back then, you used to know
You should be looking within
Instead you're looking at them, now tell me, what you looking for
Cause you're looking so lost for words and friends
But losing yourself is worse
Where's your self worth? Don't let them second guess it
If you ain't asked yourself first
You still search for affection, but they unaffected
You just wanna help, but that hasn't helped yet
Being yourself less ain't the way to be selfless
Don't be too square to embrace your edges

If you wanted to
You could be somebody
If you want it
You could be, you could be
If you wanted to
You could be somebody
But...
Stop trying to be everything

Let me just say though, maybe they hate you
Cause of your family, your race or wherever you came from
Your gender or sex, who you identify as
Who you spend your nights with, shit they can't relate to
Could be your class, your faith or lack of same
What their parents say or anything they don't
Or maybe they just hate you for you and that's painful too
But is either someone that you're willing to change for?
(Nah!)
Ain't nobody you have to be
Don't take it so personal from people with no personality
Fakers only make it on reality
I take you know petty is the popular opinion on popularity, ah
They don't get you
And they don't have to
And if you have to point fingers at them for that
They'll only point em back at you

If you wanted to
You could be somebody
If you want it
You could be, you could be
If you wanted to
You could be somebody
But...
Stop trying to be everything

You are what you say you are
So you ain't gotta say no more
What you take em into consideration for?
Consider your option to break em off
Cause you are (uh) what you say you are
You just gotta say it more
Go and brace em for you, and embrace it all
Whatever pain, whatever scar

If you wanted to
If you want it
If you wanted to
Stop trying to be everything

If you wanted to
You could be somebody
If you want it
You could be, you could be
If you wanted to
You could be somebody
But...
Stop trying to be everything

Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
Maybe your changes will come
If you change for once
