role model - sage (rapper) lyrics

you were the only person i had ever looked up to
growing up it seemed like everyone had someone who
they wanted to grow up to be like in real life
but for me it always seemed like it was me fighting the world all by myself
every time i fell getting back up on my own
even though i had help from god, keeping me sane when i was reeling in pain
but as far as a role model it was never really the same
until i found you, and i was wowed truly
and vowed to emulate everything about you
cuz no one was stronger than you, or more gentle
extremely intelligent, yet humble to the core
and generally capable of anything you’d attempt
godly, changing lives for the better, i mean you were it
and inside i knew that someday we would meet
so i then began working
cuz on that day i’d want you to be proud of me

(chorus)
i don’t know where i’m going, all i know is that when i get there
i want to be just like you
i don’t know where i’m headed, but i know that i will like it there
as long as i look just like you

so for the longest time i did that
i tried to act exactly how i’d imagine you would if you were me
and as time went past it was happenin beautifully, i realized
cuz as i grew stronger than anyone else around
i used my strength to vouch for the helpless
now i’m getting smarter while learning to be selfless
i would still have a long way to go
but it felt somehow like i was on the way
but i wasn’t prepared for the lord to bear me with more weight
than i’d ever carried before
and i knew what i should do, what you would do: hold it and stay strong
but as days grew on to years i started to break
so hard to continue on, and slowly i grew lonely bitter and cold
til i won’t look into the mirror in fear of the fact that the face i see
is one that i know would make you ashamed of me, and that

(chorus)

he was the only person you had ever looked up to
growing up it seemed like everyone had someone who
they wanted to grow up to be like in real life
but for you it always seemed like a lonely fight versus the world
until you imagined what future you would be like
and then you would have an ideal to strive toward
somebody to try to be like more in moving your life forward
but if i’m going to be honest, i’m gonna need to apologize
because i am not who you think i am, all this time you spend
looking up to me it freakin k!lls me inside
knowing i’m quite far from being what we’d have liked
but i might be wrong… cuz we might be on the same path still
approaching the light beyond the current darkness
so if there’s any way i can still get to where he is
then please don’t lose faith in me just yet
