this brought me to tears
it’s like someone has been listening to the conversations that chris & i have been having with christopher and turned them into a song
yeah, you may think that i’m a zero
but, hey, everyone you wanna be
probably started off like me
you may say that i’m a freakshow (i don’t care)
but, hey, give me just a little time
i bet you’re gonna change your mind
all of the dirt you’ve been throwin’ my way
it ain’t so hard to take, that’s right
‘cause i know one day you’ll be screamin’ my name
and i’ll just look away, that’s right
just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
so everyone can hear
hit me with the worst you got and knock me down
baby, i don’t care
keep it up, and soon enough you’ll figure out
you wanna be
you wanna be
a loser like me
a loser like me
push me up against the locker
and hey, all i do is shake it off
i’ll get you back when i’m your boss
i’m not thinkin’ ’bout you haters
’cause hey, i could be a superstar
i’ll see you when you wash my car
all of the dirt you’ve been throwin’ my way
it ain’t so hard to take, that’s right
‘cause i know one day you’ll be screamin’ my name
and i’ll just look away, that’s right
just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth
so everyone can hear
hit me with the worst you got and knock me down
baby, i don’t care
keep it up, and soon enough you’ll figure out
you wanna be
you wanna be
a loser like me
a loser like me
a loser like me
hey, you, over there
keep the L up, up in the air
hey, you, over there
keep the L up, ’cause i don’t care
you can throw your sticks, and you can throw your stones
like a rocket, just watch me go
yeah, L-O-S-E-R
i can only be who i are
i hope that he can believe this for himself
and find a chorus of voices to sing along with
Ugh. I’m not looking forward to experiencing middle school/junior high AGAIN through my children.
oh, doesn’t it take everything in you not to run away with your babies?
actually, that is how i don’t: knowing i COULD but choose not to.
i will remain in steady prayer for sweet cj.
Keep the conversations going, and we’ll pray with you for these tough years.
