A song based upon the frustration that becomes present when someone, that says they love you for you, try to change you and expect the impossible out of you.
I'm a young singer just trying to be heard.
This is just me.. my music.. my lyrics.. my voice.. and most of all my soul.
Story behind the song
Inspired by childhood experiences.
Lyrics
I've tried so hard to make you happy
But never do my efforts make you proud of me
What else can I do to ever get through to you
I do my best but my best's never good enough
why is it that you're making it so tough
Don't be so uptight and just accept me for me
I know I'm not perfect, but who really is
I can't do the impossible, but I can do this...
I do my best give my all, and I can stand tall
The standards you set are ridiculous...
What do you expect of me..
oo me.. what do you expect of me... hmm.
For years I've been an instrument
But the last high note I could never hit
Falling flat never earned your applause
I do my best but my best's never good enough
why is it that you're making it so tough
Don't be so uptight and just accept me for me
I know I'm not perfect, but who really is
I can't do the impossible, but I can do this...
I do my best give my all, and I can stand tall
The standards you set are ridiculous...
What you expect can't be done by most of us,
acceptance is all I ask for
I give what I can sorry I can't give you more
My best's never good enough..
My best's never good enough..
My best's never good enough.....
I do my best give my all, and I can stand tall
The standards you set are ridiculous...
What you expect can't be done by most of us,
acceptance is all I ask for
I give what I can sorry I can't give you more...
Ohhh... Sorry I can't give you more..
What do you expect of me?
