Why no one will help me…
I am too dumb… I am too smart…
They'll not understand me…
I am lonely…
They'll hate me…
And there is not enough time…
It's too hard to help me…
And God wants me to work…
No resting… no lazy…
I'm too far from home…
It takes far too much energy…
And I cannot afford to…
No one will ever see me…
These excuses how they served me so well
They've kept me safe
They've kept me stuck
They've kept me locked in my own cell These excuses how they're so familiar
They've kept me blocked
They've kept me small
They've kept me locked in my own shell
Bringing this into the light Shakes their foundation
And it clears my side
Now my imagination
Is the only thing that limits
The bar that is raised to the heights
