[Verse 1]
I've been living the nine to five
Caught in the crossfire of wrong and right
Okay with the status quo, a little ant marching down this road
I've been chained to this chair and desk
Phone wrapped around my neck, the day's a mess
But somewhere deep in my soul, i hear your voice calling me home
Calling me home, calling me home to what you've been waiting for
[Chorus]
I wanna be me, not someone else that i’m trying to be
I’m tired of all this make believe, just me
I wanna be real, with arms wide open and eyes that see in this broken world what we really need is me
To be all you made me to be
[Verse 2]
There's so much more that i can do
What have i got to lose there's no excuse
So hear my when i pray make me someone who saves the day
Not a hero so they can cheer
But someone who makes it clear that i'll be here
Let me give what matters most, time and love and let me give hope
I wanna know, i wanna know what you have made me for
[Chorus]
I wanna be me, not someone else that i’m trying to be
I’m tired of all this make believe, just me
I wanna be real, with arms wide open and eyes that see in this broken world what we really need is me
To be all you made me to be
[Bridge]
I'm tired of my wheels spinning ‘round
So put my soul back on your ground
It's time to let the old me go
And bring this wanderer home
[Chorus]
I wanna be me, not someone else that i’m trying to be
I’m tired of all this make believe, just me
I wanna be real, with arms wide open and eyes that see in this broken world what we really need is me
To be all you made me to be
