My true colors

by Ryan Parsons   May 11, 2005


My true colors aren’t shining brightly enough,
So you can’t see me,

My self image isn’t what I want it to be,
Sometimes I feel so far away,
Who I am right now is not who I want to be,
But I try to change my ways,

Chorus- cause I don’t want to be like everyone else,
I just want to be unique,
Don’t want to follow patterns of this screwed up world,
My true colors will shine through,

My selfish habits are screwing up the inside of me,
I can only call on God to guide me,
Everything I want and everything I need,
Do not coexist,

    you could take out the last line (do not coexist) and go on and add an insult to someone to make it more angry like- you've taken away from me- i don't know the beat or melody so i assumed it was a rock feel. You could yell the last stanza. get louder as you go through it (is the last stanza the bridge?) that would make it more powerful. Remember songs tell a story-they start out soft and get louder, listen to your music and you will notice.
