The second release of “Best Version of Myself,” this is richer version of its earlier acoustic solo guitar release, including a rich bass line, background vocals, and drums emphasizing the bouncy feel of this upbeat tune.
[Verse 1]
I’m a simple kid raised in a simple town
I know right from wrong and I know to keep my feet on the ground
Now I find I’ve been blind for quite some time
Believing you would hold onto the same old rhymes
[Chorus]
The last few years all you’ve ever seen from me is exactly who I don’t want to be
I’ve been a foolish child for a foolish while and it’s time to take my dreams down off the shelf
Get back to the best version of myself
[Verse 2]
I’m someone who knows what I need to do
But that sure as hell doesn’t mean you’ve seen the proof
The beauty is when I lay my head down at night
The morning will always bring another chance to get it right
[Chorus]
The last few years all you’ve ever seen from me is exactly who I don’t want to be
I’ve been a foolish child for a foolish while
And it’s time to take my dreams down off the shelf
Get back to the best version of myself
[Bridge]
If I were you I would not believe me because talk is so cheap
And I won’t blame you just know I that I’ve still got a promise to keep
[Chorus]
The last few years all you’ve ever seen from me is exactly who I don’t want to be
I’ve been a foolish child for a foolish while
And it’s time to take my dreams down off the shelf
Get back to the best version of myself
