I never said I was perfect,
or ever tried to make the world believe,
I've always tried to be honest,
and tried hard not to deceive.

Some people think well of me,
and others never seem to tire,
to try and change my point of view,
try to make me walk that wire.

I never was much for playing games,
with me what you see is who I am.
I don't beat around the proverbial bush.
Never could abide pulling a sham.

Guess you could say I'm happy with,
the person who is just plain me.
Can't help it if some folks are blind,
and that they chose not to see.

Tried hard the better part of my life,
to be what others thought,
learned the lesson hard and fast,
what a lesson life has taught.

You have to love the one that's you,
and accept the things you are.
Because if you can't or won't,
they'll push you off your star.
