Just Be You Lyrics

Cause you look perfect and you don't try

And life goes by it's like you don't mind

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

And when you walk in we all stare

And they all watching but you don't care

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

Cause me I never been tall

I mean I ain't short but I always been small

Always in a race with the clock on the wall

And everybody telling me I got it all wrong

I bet you never felt lost

Always had a plan that your parents understand

Teachers never telling you "you better pay attention"

Or you gon' wind up in that juvenile detention

Naw

You was 23 with degrees

I was sleeping on the couch cause I can't be on the lease

I was getting drunk

You were learning how to love

I mean I was having fun

But it's lonely when you done

I got homies that are gone

Got holes in my lungs

You got married on an island in the middle of the summer

I'm sorry but it's true

All my life I just wanted to be you

Cause you look perfect and you don't try

And life goes by it's like you don't mind

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

And when you walk in we all stare

And they all watching but you don't care

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

It's like you never even worry

Always running late but you never even hurry

Everybody talking but you ain't ever listen

I swear it's like you know something we missing

I just wanna feel like you

I don't think you even care if people like you

I bet you good at everything you ever try too

Even when you ain't try

You never practice you ready when it's game time

And you a walking highlight

Bet you look at my life and you think

That you'd rather watch paint dry

I bet you never even lonely

Everywhere you go you be like everybody know me

I was staying home you was chilling with your homies

I always needed plans you were living in the moment

Gold and you know it

I'm sorry but it's true

All my life I just wanted to be you

Cause you look perfect and you don't try

And life goes by it's like you don't mind

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

And when you walk in we all stare

And they all watching but you don't care

I bet it'd be sweet if I could just be you

If I could just be you

If I could just be you
