Here I Am |
| I’ve never been an academic, I never did well at school |
| Never made the grade like we’re all told we’re supposed to do |
| I was slow and to cope I would joke and be a teachers fool |
| Just to hide it |
| He said, I’ll never come to much, I’ll never be no good |
| I didn’t fit in the vision of the curriculum like I should |
| Who says a test is the best way to get us understood? |
| I don’t think so. |
| Don’t think so, no |
| Here I am. |
| Tell me, what I gotta lose? |
| Tell me, what I gotta prove? |
| Here I am. |
| Ain’t no win without a fail |
| So let me fail forward, hey |
| Here I am |
| I said I was slow but now I know another point of view |
| Turns out, I let every little thing sink in until I know it through and through |
| Ain’t it funny to kill a mockingbird are words that we learn at school |
| On compassion? |
| Well, here I am. |
| Tell me, what I gotta lose? |
| Tell me, what I gotta prove? |
| Here I am. |
| Ain’t no win without a fail |
| So let me fail forward, hey |
| Here I am |
| Each day, I make a bet |
| That the voices in my head |
| Won’t always understand |
| Or take me as I am |
| I didn’t read a lot of books as a kid until my table’s turned |
| At 21 I began to eat up the whole shelf filling up myself in the words |
| Of other misfits looking for a home in a lonely world |
| Now, here I am. |
| Tell me, what I gotta lose? |
| Tell me, what I gotta prove? |
| Here I am. |
| Ain’t no win without a fail |
| So let me fail forward, hey |
| So let me fail |
| So let me fail forward |
| Here I am |
| So let me fail |
| So let me fail forward, hey |
