Lyrics:
Verse 1:
In my head
the world's not a bad place
Still my eyes
see sorrow and distress
The reason for my pain
Is that I refrain
Because I do not say
What I have to say
I see the world
through your eyes
And depend
on you more than I
The words I do say
They only leave me in pain
Because they're not mine
They feel more than lies
Chorus:
I compromise by telling lies,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm half my size,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
being who I'm not
being who I'm not
Verse 2:
I live a life
that looks okay
but inside
I burn every day
Because you don't know that
I stutter and that's my fault
I've never been able
to speak up and own this
Chorus:
I compromise by telling lies,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm half my size,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
being who I'm not
being who I'm not
Bridge:
Who, who I'm not
Who, who I'm not
Who, who I'm not
Who, who I'm not
Chorus:
I compromise by telling lies,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm half my size,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
I compromise by telling lies,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm half my size,
being who I'm not
I compromise I'm in disguise,
being who I'm not
being who I'm not

Nice work sir! I was sad to see you leave Nashville but life's all about making decisions. I think you made a smart decision taking care of yourself.
This song really shows the improvements you've made! You've never minced any words about your journey and I've used as inspiration for my own.

Nice song!
I didn't expect you to be so fast yesterday, in fact, you even made a video clip
I like the song, the lyrics are honest and concrete, the musical elements that appear and disappear are very well executed, I really feel that everything is in its place.
I shouldn't have "compromised" the challenge yesterday
Whatever someday I will release a song to meet the challenge, hope you to listen to it

thanks Guti! Yeah I may have been too quick with it but I wanted to surprise you 😄
Waiting on your song now 😊
