Lyrics for NOT THE SAME
Why do you want me to be like you
I don’t want you to be like me
Is it because you are smarter better or holier than I
I don’t perceive that I am smarter better or holier than thou
I see us as different people me me and you you
Same race same planet just different points of view
I may have more miles miles on my shoes
I’ve played the game I’ve sung the blues
We see life through a different lens
Don’t need to be enemies don’t need to be friends
You can’t make me see through your eyes
It’s my road to travel it’s mine to surmise
I don’t wish to make you see what I’ve seen where I’ve been
I don’t want to be like you think or live like you
We have our own fields to plough with tools we find along the way
You can’t make me plant corn if I want to plant hay
I don’t expect you to think behave or plant like me
There would be two of me one’s enough as far as I can see
Don’t try to make me think believe or live like you
Not enough room for me to be you
I don’t want you to be to be like me I don’t want you to try to make me a reflection of you
I don’t care for you to be be a reflection of me I just want us both to live live and be free
ADDENDUM
I am solely responsible for the songwriting on this page … that is what I do and who I am. Yes I know that socially conscience, environmentally friendly, politically incorrect folk rock songs and songwriting is not particularly popular … but again what I do who I am. Yes you do have to listen and think about the message in the music I will continue to write about what I see, hear, feel and know and perform them to the best of my ability when and where ever I have the opportunity.
