I want to be the person you want me to be
I want to be the person you wanted to see
but that person wouldn't be me
if you insist on expecting continually

I am more than the smiles and the laughter
I am more than the clumsy and the clutter
I am also serious on some matter
even when my attention usually scatter

I am more than the tears that I cry
I am more than the frustation that I sigh
I am also the courage that cuts through fear
I am also a raging light, bright and clear

I am more than a face or a mask
I am more than my deeds and my task
I am a free man first and foremost
I am a miracle that I toast

I hope that you wouldn't mind
For more surprises that you might find
For I am more than the expectation
I am in myself a celebration
What do you expect?
