[Verse 1]
I ain’t got much going on these days
I’ve seen a lot of work but I ain’t saying no pain
I’ve seen people pass me in another lane
Heard folks trying to be what they ain’t
I heard them say things they don’t mean
And most of them don’t think too much of me
You lived out my authenticity
Just because they’ve seen me on TV
[Pre-Chorus]
And all I can be is something real
Just saying the words the folks can’t feel
Works up eleven, sets the day
Starting going down for lost highways
[Chorus]
I don’t need your blueprint for what I already do
I’m just gonna sing a song
That gets me through
So you can try and figure out my plan
Don’t try to tell me who I am
[Verse 2]
Well, I woke up early this morning
And the rain’s pouring down
And so I tried to spend my records
They work to make no sound
[Pre-Chorus]
All I can be is something real
Just say the words the folks can’t feel
Works up eleven, sets the day
Starting going down for lost highways
[Chorus]
I don’t need your blueprint for what I already do
I’m just gonna sing a song
That gets me through
So you can try and figure out my plan
Don’t try to tell me who I am
[Outro]
You can try and figure out my plan
But don’t try to tell me who I am
No, no, no
