See Me

Super Daddy Chris You say you know me Like some story that you've read a thousand times Same old chapters Dog‑eared pages Every sentence underlined But I've been changing quiet in the corners Learning how to speak my name You keep talking to the person that I was Like I'm still the same How do I get you to stop seeing me the way you do And start seeing me for who I am and who I'm running to I'm not your memory I'm still unfolding I wish that you could hold the truth Not just the proof Of everything I used to be How do I get you to see Me You pull out stories Like old photographs you keep inside your wallet fold Laugh and say "that's you" As if all my edges stayed exactly like that pose But I've been breaking patterns in the daylight Letting all my armor fall You keep reaching for the kid that needed saving I'm standing tall How do I get you to stop seeing me the way you do And start seeing me for who I am and who I'm running to I'm not your memory I'm still unfolding I wish that you could hold the truth Not just the proof Of everything I used to be How do I get you to see Me Youre still mad at who i use to be You cant let it go youre so angry But i've been changing quietly I swear that i'm not lying we Just gotta figure out how i get you to finally see me How do I get you to stop seeing me the way you do And start seeing me for who I am and who I'm running to I'm not your memory I'm still unfolding I wish that you could hold the truth Not just the proof Of everything I used to be How do I get you to see Me Can you listen with your eyes closed (eyes closed) Let the past fade out of frame (out of frame) If I tell you who I am now Will you call me by my chosen name (yeah) I'm not asking you to love me Like you did back then Just to meet me in this moment And let me start again (start again) How do I get you to stop seeing me the way you do And start seeing me for who I am and who I'm reaching to I'm not your history I'm still becoming If you could loosen your grip on yesterday's script Maybe you'd believe There's more than what you think you see How do I get you to see Me (see me) Me Writer(s): Mark Edwards
