WANNA BE


I don?t know just what to do. Don?t know just what to say.
Although the words don?t seem to come, I?ll keep writing anyway.

Cause here I sit with pen in hand, and struggle with this task.
But I?m on the verge of something that I think is gonna last.

I wanna be remembered. I wanna make a stand.
I wanna be somebody. I wanna be a better man.

Everyone?s got hopes and dreams they cling to all their lives.
Some lost forgotten feeling that they?ve stuffed down deep inside.

But me. . . . I dream of music, I want to sing my song.
You might call me ?Wanna Be?. . . You would not be wrong.


I wanna be forgiven. I wanna understand.
I wanna give?em something. I wanna lend a helping hand.


You might feel at times that your love is on the table.
You might feel at times that life is on the line.
You might feel at times that you?re willing, but not able.

I wanna be remembered. I wanna make a stand.
I wanna be somebody. I wanna be a better man.
Lord let me listen. Make me aware.
Give me the courage. . . to let somebody know I care.
