I wake up, another day the same No one sees the colors in my name Trying hard to shine but feel so small Like a shadow fading on the wall Every word I keep inside Echoes loud but no one hears Maybe if I learn to try I’ll be worth someone’s tears I just wanna be useful More than just a face in the crowd Something real, something truthful Something that makes you proud If I fall, will I be remembered? Or fade like I was never there? I just wanna be useful To someone who cares Smiles hide the cracks inside my chest Dreams that never let me rest But I still believe there’s more to find A reason waiting in my mind Every scar, a quiet truth Every loss, a part of youth If I break, I’ll learn to mend ’Cause even broken hearts pretend I just wanna be useful More than just a face in the crowd Something real, something truthful Something that makes you proud If I fall, will I be remembered? Or fade like I was never there? I just wanna be useful To someone who cares Maybe I'm enough right now Maybe I don’t need a crown Maybe being me somehow Is all that counts I am already useful Even when I don’t belong Every tear was beautiful It made me strong If I shine, it’s ’cause I'm human And I’ve learned how much I care I just wanna be useful And I already am
