An Uncomfortable Truth
(Music & Lyrics by Rocky Michaels)

I see you walkin’ down the street tryin’ not to look at me
Does my appearance keep you away
I might be a tattered one but you don’t know what I’ve got underneath
as I fight another day
A casualty I might be of a downsized economy
Or a suffering victim of disease
I might be a broken soul from a broken home just trying to peace things on my own
But you don’t see the forest for the trees
Here, Here I Am
Will you even look me in the eye
Can you hear me talkin'
Or will you just keep walkin’ by
Oh, well I am you and you are me and sometimes truth is hard to see
Everybody’s got a story full of torn and weathered pages
Plots with twists and conflicts to unfold
You can judge me by my cover but if you took some time to read
A greater tale is waiting to be told
Well Here, Here I Am
Do you see me standing here at all
Can you hear me talkin'
Will you even answer to my call
Oh yeah, well I am you and you are me and sometimes truth is hard to see
There’re eight billion souls of us now living
And eight billion reasons worth giving a little of ourselves
For years I kept praying and hoping
But my dreams they all left me long ago
I’m not bad but I’m not good at coping anymore
I guess I just wanted you to know
Well Here, Here I Am
Will somebody please make some time for me
Cause I fear your missin’
More to my story than you see
Oh, well I am you and you are me though it might be uncomfortable to see
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-na na
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-yeah (I’m somebody too)
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-na na (Whoo – hoo yeah)
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-yeah (I am you and you are me, hey)
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-na na (Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-yeah (Woo - hoo)
Na-na na na-na-na-na Na-na na
