[Verse 1] You can leave my name Off the paper by the door Count me out before I start Like you’ve done it all before I hear the quiet laugh When I reach above my place But I’ve learned a borrowed doubt Can’t decide my pace [Pre-Chorus] Let them measure what they see Let them call it small I’ve got more beneath the surface Than they’ll find at all [Chorus] Underestimate me Go on, make your case I’ll turn the doubt you handed me Into something that remains At the end of every day When the easy promises run I’m the one thing I can count on When no one else does, I get it done [Verse 2] I don’t need the front row Or a headline with my name I can build behind the curtain Then step forward through the flame Every door that stayed shut Taught my hands a different way Now the work speaks for itself Before I have to say [Pre-Chorus] Let them bet against the climb Let them praise the fall I’ve been gathering my balance While they watched it all [Chorus] Underestimate me Go on, make your case I’ll turn the doubt you handed me Into something that remains At the end of every day When the easy promises run I’m the one thing I can count on When no one else does, I get it done [Bridge] Maybe I was never meant To fit the frame you drew Maybe every lowered ceiling Made me build a higher view If I’m standing here alone I’m still standing in the light You can miss me in the moment But you won’t miss the mark tonight [Final Chorus] Underestimate me Say I won’t go far I’ll leave proof across the room And a fire where you are At the end of every day When the easy promises run I’m the one thing I can count on When no one else does, I get it done [Outro] Count me out, I’ll count on me Count me out, just wait and see When the final curtain comes I’ll be the one who made it mean something
