Tryin'
by Matthew West

Album: Live Forever

Used to hate what I saw in the mirror
Now I'm seeing it a little bit clearer
I've spent my last day tryin'
I've spent my last day tryin'

Everybody going out of their way
Trying to change who I am and hey
I've spent my last day tryin'
I've spent my last day tryin'

I don't want to fit in
So much for measuring up
The truth is sinking in
Who I am is good enough

No more tryin'
No more tryin'
Tryin' to be
Anybody other than me
Cause I'm no copy
I'm no replay
I'm one of a kind
And starting now I'm done
Tryin', tryin'
Oh oh whoa
Tryin' tryin'
Oh oh whoa

I want to buy the world a great big trash can
Get all the beauty magazines that I can
Through them in and set them on fire
What? Yep, I'm gonna set them on fire
Cause every page is a lie they're tellin'
And every face is a promise they're sellin'
Those things got one less buyer
I'm not gonna walk that wire

I don't want to fit in
So much for measuring up
The truth is sinking in
Who I am is good enough
Who you are is good enough

No more tryin'
No more tryin'
Tryin' to be
Anybody other than me
Cause I'm no copy
I'm no replay
I'm one of a kind
And starting now I'm done
Tryin'

More than just the outside
Love looks at the heart
You and me were made by
The hands that made the stars
And tonight that's what we are

Come on, let's light, light, light it up
We gonna light, light, light it up
We gonna light, light, light it up, oh oh
You and me, we gonna light light light it up
Come on, light, light, light it up
Cause who I am is good enough
And who you are is good enough

No more tryin'
No more tryin'
Tryin' to be
Anybody other than me
Cause I'm no copy, no
I'm no replay
I'm one of a kind, yeah

No more tryin'
No more tryin'
Tryin' to be
Anybody other than me, yeah
Cause I'm no copy
I'm no replay
I'm one of a kind
And starting now I'm done
Tryin', tryin'
Oh oh whoa
Tryin' tryin'
Oh oh whoa
