JEAN GRAE - Special lyrics

rate me

In a world full of bodies that are moving through the world

Like a movie intro

Introspect, yeah, shuffling along side

Key feathers and ruffle eyes fly below the radar

Even though I know I could sow

I’m all mediocre, meet me in between the four walls, box

Chocking on the times that could bring me greater things

Acting like a king like I’m on it, I know I’m not

Yeah, too scared to give it everything I got

Yes, it’s difficult to shoot ‘em through the top

When you’re feeling like there’s never really anything to aim for

This is what I came for

Little bit of fantasy, little bit of hope instead of closed doors

You know the ones that you shut on yourself?

The ones with all the light up in them

And you can make them bright or dim them

I know that I can be that person, right

The one that people wanna be a person like

So maybe there’s something else out of first life

Worth something, like a birth right

Maybe I wasn’t made for Earth life

I wanna be good at the first light

I wanna be the things I know I aim to serve right

The things I’m worth, right?

Did anybody see it? I want them to know it

I wanna be special

I know that I’m special

Can you see it? Want you to know it, too

Did anybody see it? I want them to know it

I wanna be special

I know that I’m special

Can you see it? Want you to know it, too

Special, special, special

I’m afraid of a lot of things

It’s a lot of work, a full time job monitoring

Myself, my needs, wants, dreams

My health, my needs, front schemes

My keepers were risk takers

I don’t wanna wear a cape just so you can put your faith in it

I wanna be the face of it, your faith

But I don’t wanna put my grace in it

No, wasting potential

Seeking easy roads with direction seems to be the me I know

Protection from intense will, picking easy loads

Resting, easier to be than growth

I’m feeling that maybe it won’t cut it, yeah

And maybe it’s time I started running from fear

Spending more time in the wonder years

Maybe I’ve been blinding myself with wonderment here

I know I could’ve been missing everything

I could’ve been missing everything

Did anybody see it? I want them to know it

I wanna be special

I know that I’m special

Can you see it? Want you to know it, too

Did anybody see it? I want them to know it

I wanna be special

I know that I’m special

Can you see it? Want you to know it, too
