[00:13.71]If I don’t say anything it’s wrong
[00:16.77]If I said it' it wouldn’t come out right
[00:20.27]It’s been keeping me up all night
[00:21.70]
[00:25.33]Half my life I’ve been told to shut up
[00:29.52]So how am I gonna open up
[00:31.96]Wish you could just read my mind
[00:36.45]If I shared all of me would you run away
[00:39.89]If I sugar coated what I had to say
[00:43.02]In poetry would it make you stay
[00:47.46]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[00:50.39]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[00:53.39]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[00:56.39]And followed my heart
[00:57.83]Unafraid of the truth
[00:59.58]Even if I stood alone
[01:02.45]I didn’t know how it was gonna go
[01:05.52]Even if the water was cold I’d take a deep breath
[01:09.70]And get it off my chest
[01:11.58]And hope for the best
[01:13.29]Even if I stood alone
[01:15.91]I didn’t know how it was gonna go
[01:18.78]And get it off my chest
[01:22.10]And hope for the best
[01:25.97]They say either way you win
[01:28.60]If it’s mutual why hold it in
[01:31.41]And it’s not meant to be
[01:34.03]And you tell the truth it will set you free
[01:37.35]But all their wisdom doesn’t help me now
[01:40.53]I’m scared and I gotta find out
[01:43.16]How to speak my mind
[01:44.58]Without metaphors and prose and rhymes
[01:46.14]And still make you mine
[01:48.71]I hope you know what I mean when I’m acting mean
[01:51.83]Cuz I don’t say what I mean when I’m caught in-between
[01:55.08]And I’m afraid
[01:56.46]The real you is eluding me
[01:59.64]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[02:02.39]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[02:05.39]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[02:08.27]And followed my heart
[02:09.83]Unafraid of the truth
[02:11.52]Even if I stood alone
[02:14.40]I didn’t know how it was gonna go
[02:17.41]Even if the water was cold I’d take a deep breath
[02:21.78]And get it off my chest
[02:23.59]And hope you will catch
[02:26.53]Me when I fall
[02:29.34]And love me back
[02:32.47]When I show you my all
[02:35.53]Fill in the blanks
[02:38.34]If I’m not making sense
[02:41.34]
[02:42.47]Be patient with me
[02:45.60]
[02:47.74]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[02:50.42]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[02:53.43]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[02:56.42]And followed my heart
[02:57.80]Unafraid of the truth
[02:59.55]Even if I stood alone
[03:02.36]I didn’t know how it was gonna go
[03:05.42]Even if the water was cold I’d take a deep breath
[03:09.55]And get it off my chest
[03:11.61]And hope for the best
[03:13.55]Even if I stood alone
[03:15.80]Didn’t know how it was gonna go
[03:18.80]Gotta get it off my chest
[03:21.74]And hope for the best
[03:25.67]If I don’t say anything it’s wrong
[03:28.74]If I said it it wouldn’t come out right
