Be Someone Lyrics by Eli Wilson

For The First Time

2022

[Intro]
(Ahhhhh)
(Ahhh)

[Chorus]
I'm writing songs like every night
I wouldn't stop until I went and got it right
And now the pressure's getting tight
But I'm not worried, I was ready for the fight
And at a young age, I knew I wasn't perfect (perfect)
I knew I had some things I really had to work with
I understood that if I wanted put the work in
And it'd be worth it

[Verse 1]
I always knew that I would be someone
Everybody walkin' but I keep runnin'
Ever since a kid I've had these dreams, oh
I wanted to be old
But now I'm 18, I got these problems, got these fears, oh
Surrounded by people
Who try to shut me down
And who want to stay in this town
I guess their mindset's just to low for it
But I say just to go for it
And if I fall down, I get up, go all out
Say that I'm obsessing, that's my caption
But I just write these lyrics, that's my passion

[Chorus]
I'm writing songs like every night
I wouldn't stop until I went and got it right
And now the pressure's getting tight
But I'm not worried, I was ready for the fight
And at a young age, I knew I wasn't perfect
I knew I had some things I really had to work with
I understood that if I wanted put the work in
And it'd be worth it

[Verse 2]
Started as a junior up in high school
I said I'd make it with this music if I tried to
I knew that I could do it, I could put my mind to
Two years later, got a deal and taking flights too
Everything was still, I'll be the same if I never tried
Never took a shot
All night making music 'bout
Everything I fought
(Ohhhhh)
Ohhh, I got this feeling in my
Soul, and it's not something I
Control, I feel whole

[Chorus]
I'm writing songs like every night
I wouldn't stop until I went and got it right
And now the pressure's getting tight
But I'm not worried, I was ready for the fight
And at a young age, I knew I wasn't perfect
I knew I had some things I really had to work with
I understood that if I wanted put the work in
And it'd be worth it
