Im not very good at just paying attention
Im not very good at remembering things that you say
Im not very good at pursuing redemption
Im not very good at concealing the hand that I play

(Chorus:)
Its the way I am
You'll never change
The way I am
Or rearrange
The way I am
Just let me be
The way I am
It's the way I am

Im not really sure of the coming attractions
Im not really sure of the illusions they read on the wall
Im not really sure of the preaching we practice
Im not really sure well notice it before we fall

(Chorus:)
Its the way I am
Youll never change
The way I am
Or rearrange
The way I am
Just let me be
The way I am
It's the way I am

Im not very good at just paying attention
Im not very good at remembering things
Im not very good at pursuing redemption
Im not very good at concealing the hand that I play

When I'm trying so hard just to beat you
Im not really good at controlling my fate
Im not really good at controlling my anger
Im not really good at subduing my hate
Im not really good
Im not really good
Im not really good

(Chorus:)
Its the way I am
You'll never change
The way I am
Or rearrange
The way I am
Just let me be
The way I am
It's the way I am
