The Man I Want to Be Songtext
von Jake Scott

If I become the choices that I make
Am I on the road that I should take?
Cause I′ve got all of these ambitions, but I'm afraid they take me down
But I don′t want to end up wishing
For the life I could have found
If these dreams get so bright that
They're blinding
Will I still know how to see?
When I write the last words of this story
Will I be the man I want to be?
Oh, will I be the man I want to be?
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh


Many men have tried and lost their way
Sold their souls for fortunes made of flames
And I don't want to follow footsteps of tragedies and chasing fame
But I don′t want to miss the first step and never live cause I was too afraid
If these dreams get so bright that
They′re blinding
Will I still know how to see?
When I write the last words of this story

Will I be the man I want to be?

Oh, will I be the man I want to be?

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
If I got everything I've wanted
And stood beneath the lights on the stage
Would the boy when I was young
Love the man that I′ve become
Or would he even recognize my face?
And if these dreams get so bright that
They're blinding
Will I still know how to see?
When I write the last words of this story
Will I be the man I want to be?
Oh, will I be the man I want to be?
Oh, will I be the man I want to be?
