[Verse 1] Bad grades with no expectations Family dunce with no motivation I think that high school is boring You think my learning is slowin' I hate everything about school It makes me feel like such a fool I hope you can see past this phase Please just give me some praise [Chorus] And I will try so hard to make you proud Give me a chance Know that this time will be different [Verse 2] Now I go off to college Locations changed, but I'm strugglin' Failed degree, I am bored again I am so fucked up in my head Mom and Dad have given up on me Should I just run away and leave I hope you can see past this phase Please just give me some praise [Chorus] And I will try so hard to make you proud Give me a chance Know that this times gonna be different [Instrumental] [Verse 3] I will try to find my own thing It will be just for me Something that will make you proud again Like it was back when I was ten Look at me and see what I can do! Rocking hard like I always knew I hope you see me in this phase Please just give me some praise [Chorus] And I will try so hard to make you proud Give me a chance Know that this time IS different [Instrumental] [Bridge] Give me some praise Give me some praise [Outro] I know I'm not what you wanted Just wanted to say I am sorry I know I'm not what you wanted Just wanted to say I am sorry
