Lyrical Analysis of...

That’s me

  1. [Verse 1]
  2. Look at me, I’m the one
  3. Walk in, room get done
  4. Same old doubts? I outrun
  5. Big step, then I’m gone
  6.  
  7. I got scars on my sleeves
  8. Still I move how I please
  9. Talk cheap, but I breathe
  10. Cold stare, warm dreams
  11.  
  12. I been bent, never broke
  13. Heavy days, still I spoke
  14. Turn that pain into smoke
  15. Now I’m here, that’s the joke
  16.  
  17. They said sit still, play small
  18. I was pacing the hall
  19. Reading cracks in the wall
  20. Learning how to take it all
  21.  
  22. New shoes, scuffed at the toe
  23. Late nights, nowhere to go
  24. Still I kept my head low
  25. Then I put on the show
  26.  
  27. I came up on a lean year
  28. No applause, no clean win here
  29. Just a busted up front step
  30. And a voice that got clearer
  31.  
  32. I kept my hands steady
  33. When the room got heavy
  34. If they wanted me ready
  35. I was already ready
  36.  
  37. My own rhythm, my own beat
  38. Walked these streets on tired feet
  39. Every setback, bittersweet
  40. Made the victory feel complete
  41.  
  42. Didn't wait for an invitation
  43. Built my own damn foundation
  44. Ignored all the hesitation
  45. Now I'm my own destination
  46.  
  47. I wore the same black jacket
  48. Pocket torn, I still kept at it
  49. Every room tried to size me up
  50. I was already past it
  51.  
  52. Learned to smile with a split lip
  53. Keep it moving, let the stiff slip
  54. If the whole world said "not yet"
  55. I was already in it
  56.  
  57. [Pre Chorus]
  58. They tried to box me in
  59. I cut right through the seam
  60. I don’t need their approval
  61. I been building my own dream
  62.  
  63. I don’t chase their sign off
  64. I learned how to stand tall
  65. Every door I got shut
  66. Made the next one less hard
  67.  
  68. [Chorus]
  69. That’s me, that’s me
  70. Can’t nobody fade me
  71. That’s me, that’s me
  72. Built it from the debris
  73. That’s me, that’s me
  74. Still standing lately
  75. Say my name, say it clean
  76. Yeah, that’s me, that’s me
  77.  
  78. That’s me when the phone rings
  79. That’s me with the sharp edge
  80. That’s me with the loose change
  81. And the keys on the bench
  82.  
  83. [Verse 2]
  84. I know my flaws, I know
  85. Still I watch myself grow
  86. Every loss that I chose
  87. Turned to fuel in the glow
  88.  
  89. I’m the laugh after rain
  90. I’m the scar, I’m the gain
  91. I’m the fire in my veins
  92. I don’t fold, I don’t change
  93.  
  94. If the path get steep
  95. I just dig my feet
  96. When they count me out
  97. I make history repeat
  98.  
  99. I missed a few, kept score
  100. Came back asking for more
  101. Knocked, they left the door
  102. So I learned to build my own
  103.  
  104. I don’t need a crown
  105. I just need solid ground
  106. When the whole thing shakes down
  107. I’m the one that stays around
  108.  
  109. I know the cost, I paid it
  110. Same hands that made it
  111. Had to take the long way
  112. Had to let it be faded
  113.  
  114. Now the room knows my name
  115. Not from luck, not from fame
  116. Just the work and the strain
  117. And the fact I remained
  118.  
  119. [Pre Chorus]
  120. They tried to box me in
  121. I cut right through the seam
  122. I don’t need their approval
  123. I been building my own dream
  124.  
  125. I don’t ask for a handout
  126. I bring what I got now
  127. Every step that I laid down
  128. Told me I could stand proud
  129.  
  130. [Chorus]
  131. That’s me, that’s me
  132. Can’t nobody fade me
  133. That’s me, that’s me
  134. Built it from the debris
  135. That’s me, that’s me
  136. Still standing lately
  137. Say my name, say it clean
  138. Yeah, that’s me, that’s me
  139.  
  140. That’s me when the lights cut
  141. That’s me with no backup
  142. That’s me, still showing up
  143. Even when it gets rough
  144.  
  145. [Bridge]
  146. If I fall, I rise
  147. No disguise, no lies
  148. I been mine all along
  149. That’s why I stay strong
  150.  
  151. If the floor gives way
  152. I find another way
  153. I don’t need a straight line
  154. I just need today
  155.  
  156. [Chorus]
  157. That’s me, that’s me
  158. Can’t nobody fade me
  159. That’s me, that’s me
  160. Built it from the debris
  161. That’s me, that’s me
  162. Still standing lately
  163. Say my name, say it clean
  164. Yeah, that’s me, that’s me
