A little backnote confession
Silent but wanting it to be heard
I don't want to be a nobody
Or somebody unknown throughout his life
I want to to be remembered for centuries
Come drown these doubted words with me
I'll pay for the drink
Let's sooth the fire at the start
So it doesn't get awkward
I'm not better than Mozart or the guy you see it at the Subway restaurant
But I want to be someone who impacts the world
I want something about me to give warmth inside a woman's bones
Where she can't see herself with any other man
Because I'm an open folder that was opened on the wrong page
And I want you to know that my fears are your future problems
And I don't want that
I just want to be a man who is remembered forever
For the world and your world
Ahead of immortality, you're the most important
Making you happy is what removes the dirt from my skin
And cleanse itself instantly
You're the reason I'm not piling up on candy at a Dollar Tree
I just want you to feel independent and free
And satisfied with me
I want that chance for you to be happy
Because you're looking for a certain man
And I just want to fit that criteria
