All I am, all I am is
Six strings and a smile
I was twelve, I was twelve
I ran five minute miles
They would clap, they would clap
At every talent show
Keep my smile, keep my smile
Through all the highs and lows

Do you see me, do you see me
Or do I have to scream?
Would you love me, would you love me
If I lost everything?
I've crying, I've crying
The smiles turn to frowns
On my chest, on my chest
These badges weigh me down
Traded places, traded places

With a man who looks like me
Prince or popper, pop or prince
He's who I wanna to be
Take away, take away
My six strings smile fades
Back in school, back in school
I got the worst grades
They would say, they would say
I'd never make it far
I was dumb, I was dumb
Those bullets left their scar
When she died, when she died
My heart just up in tore
So I'll sing, so I'll sing
Until they love me more

Do you see me, do you see me
Or do I have to scream?
Would you love me, would you love me
If I lost everything?
I've crying, I've crying
The smiles turn to frowns
On my chest, on my chest
These badges weigh me down
On my chest, on my chest
These badges weigh me down
