what about me

What? What about me?
All of my prayers
All of my dreams
Where? Where would I be
If I let go
And set myself free?

Guilt got me on a long leash
I checked out a long time ago
It's not all about me
But I just think about life alone
Saying shit I don't mean
Loyal to our history
I hang by the skin of my teeth
Maybe now, maybe I'll take the road

'Cause I'm people-pleasing
Play down my feelings
I think 'bout everyone else
But sometimes I gotta ask myself

What? What about me? (What about me?)
All of my prayers (all of my prayers)
All of my dreams (all my dreams)
Where? Where would I be (where would I be?)
If I let go (If I let go)
And set myself free?

What about all my wants and needs?
Why do I take ten for the team
When you take and take, take?
But there's none for me
But it's my fault
I don't let them know

'Cause I'm people-pleasing
But I've hit my ceiling
I think 'bout everyone else
But sometimes I gotta ask myself

What? What about me? (What about)
All of my prayers (all of my prayers)
All of my dreams (all of my dreams)
Where? Where would I be (where would I be?)
If I let go (If I let go)
And set myself free? (Free)

Paid my dues, I am the table
Not the man that God made me for
This ain't right, I cannot stay, no
If I let go, if I let go

Paid my dues, I am the table
Not the man that God made me for
This ain't right, I cannot stay, no

What? What about me?
All of my prayers
And all of my dreams
Where? Where would I be
If I let go
And set myself free?
Free
