The Man That Built Me

The man that built me Praying for change Broking almost every law In every empty bottle On other high Walking 12 stapes Seems almost impossible Looking at the past Those years in darkness Only got me ready for the light The things he did Made who I am Making the man I am Not everything I do Is what he'd do If you put me down I'll try to build you up Not tear you down Every day is a battle Raging war with myself Trying to understand Where I belong Sometimes wearing a smile Is all I can do Believing in something More than myself Is something new to me If new my past I wonder How would you look at me What would you see If you could see The man that built me Instead of the man Standing in front of you Would you still see me
