I'm trying to decide between mind and my attitude 

I'm giving up the things I wanna be me and be not like you 

Shy nervous and quiet sitting in the corner that's no longer me 

You wanna figure out this kid then you'll just have to see 

Cause what I was what I am what I wanna be 

I'm no longer blind it's your crossed-eyes that cannot see 

A simple now now I think that I must give it up (give it up) 

Insight pow my life just needs another cut 



(Chorus:)

I said I'm giving up I'm giving up what I used to be 

I said I'm giving up I'm giving up now I'm giving up what I used to be 

I said I'm giving up I'm giving up what I used to be 

What I used to be 



(Chorus)



This time I'm clean (clean) this time I just don't give a care 

A whole new scene (new scene) this life I live this time must be fair 

Had 18 years at 19 I began again 

This time no fears don't ask me why I told you when 

Cause to reach the top the top of which I lay my hope 

My true friends knock they knock to make sure I don't choke 

One day some day we'll all make it through just fine 

Those days those days we'll all make up for wasted time 



(Chorus)



(Chorus)



What I was 

To what I am 

To what one day 

I might turn out to be 



(Chorus)



I said I'm giving up I'm giving up what I used to be 

I said I'm giving up I'm giving up now I'm giving up what I used to be 

I said I'm giving up I'm giving up what I used to be 

What I was what I am what I wanna be
