She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man that I am
She made me ‘cos she is the one.
There were
Many sides to me
Some I never showed
But some I couldn’t hide
When I tried
It made me explode
Inside.
But now
What you really see
Is the side that I hid
Underneath my skin
The charm was within
The monster outside
Was grim.
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man that I am
She made me ‘cos she is the one.
I’ve been silly, but sane
Too Crazy to explain
Outrageous I was
And why? because…
I was trapped and escaped
When released a mistake
Made to feel a fool.
The thought of success
Would have brought shame
On all of those
Close and dear
As well as myself
So I became
Reclusive
Living in fear
Protecting my family name.
But luckily…
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man that I am
She made me ‘cos she is the one.
I’m still Crazy
But tales can be told
Now I am older
I can laugh with the rest
My shame is now history
I can smile and prosper
With no misery
And negativity
Now I am happy
Being what I’m meant to be
The real me.
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man I’ve become
She made me the man that I am
She made me ‘cos she is the one.
