What I Need
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Something inside is rising
And I can't hide it
It just occurred to me
Couldn't ever really seem to find it
I was blinded
By what I was told to be
I tried to rule the world
With guilty hands
I tried to make amends
Oh, but I can't
I tried to live that life
The best that I could
But it's so hard to love yourself
When you don't think that you should
So I'll give myself some peace
Something's come over me
That nothing's what I need
Something inside is calling
And now I'm talking
To the man I used to be
Love has many different colors
You can't paint no other
It's only your masterpiece
I tried to rule the world (I'm ready)
With guilty hands (I'm ready)
I tried to make amends (I'm ready)
Oh, but I can't (I'm ready)
I tried to live that life (I'm ready)
The best that I could (I'm ready)
But it's so hard to love yourself (I'm ready)
When you don't think that you should (I'm ready)
