They used to tell me I wasn't smart enough.
Said I'll never make it, I don't resemble the stars enough.
Man, I'm just trying to get my heart to pump.
Gave me all every time, I guess my all wasn't enough.
They said I talk too much, they talk enough.
Told me I should change, but never said what I should change it to.
Man, I'm just trying to play the game with you,
so when you gon' see I'm just me, I ain't the same as you.
I just wanna give my all, the rise and fall, the world.
I just wanna leave my mark upon your heart, oh world.
What do I gotta say?
How do I gotta pray?
What do I gotta do?
Tell me, who do I gotta be?
What do you want from me?
What do I gotta prove?
No matter what I do,
I'm not breaking for you.
Tell me, what do I gotta give?
How do I gotta live
when it's not enough for you?
It's not enough for you.
Well, my first mistake was trying please everybody,
only to realize I ain't need anybody.
But all I ever wanted was acceptance,
till I accepted myself, now I can check that off my checklist.
I am no longer checking for your guest list,
or where I land on your best list.
I look at my reflection and it tells me who the best is,
so I could never do it like the rest did.
I just wanna give my all, the rise and fall, the world.
I just wanna leave my mark upon your heart, oh world.
What do I gotta say?

Tell me, what do I gotta give?
How do I gotta live
when it's not enough for you?
It's not enough for you.
Let's go.
I know they wanna see me break.
I know they'd rather see me fall.
And that's the very reason why,
I'ma rise above it all.
They used to say I wasn't strong.
Say I wasn't going very far.
Well, now I'm shining like a star,
and I'm screaming out my cause,
'cause you can't be back tomorrow.

It's not enough for you.
When it's not enough for you?
