Name I Am

[Verse 1]
Livin' up to the name I am
Oh, and it hurts
You're makin' it worse
When you sit down to write
Inside you, a child is singin' along
Or is there somethin' wrong with you?
Are you singin' a song just to sing and dilute
Now that's stupid
If you don't make the music your god, then you're lost
You don't know what to do and the odds are it's true

[Verse 2]
Livin' up to the name I am
Oh, and it hurts
You're makin' it worse
When I sit down to write
Inside me, a critic is hearin' it wrong
Oh, now what is he on? I don't know
But I got this far with him and now he can't go
So he tells me right to my fears
Keep holdin' on tight as he's sippin' my tears
And he says, "Boy, I love you"
