I Can Be

Before you come any closer
I want you to know who I am
Hear the voice from my shoulder
And it’s one that I can’t understand
And it hurt when you tripped and fell but found
That you held your ground
But we won’t talk about that now
Tread carefully
Be the best I can be
Eyes to the floor
Silent and barely seen
Step carefully
Be the best I can be
Wise to it all
In spite of how it seems
You went first and it still runs through
And it starts with you
And ends how you want it to
