I'm gonna be a pop star So I can go make my mother proud of me She never believed in the music industry Every time I showed her one of my songs She never really cared at all Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type I'll make it up to you Quit your crying Go teach your son a lesson, quit your crying I spent my whole life proving myself To those who I'd never see again Guess that's something I got used to But I'm moving on Hindsight's 20/20 when there's something wrong I just wanna be special to you Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type I'll make it up to you Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type I'll make it up to you Now when they all see me want a photo How could you even say that? You've been so cold I don't wanna be here, wanna go home I just wanna go home I don't make as much as all my friends When you say that, wish that I was dead I just wanna make my mom proud But all she cares about is why I'm not the best now I just wanna be special to you Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type I'll make it up to you Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type Goddamn, just wanna see you in the crowd sometime Because you've seen me break down one too many times tonight And I know I haven't been the greatest son But I wanna prove that I'm the type I'm gonna be a pop star So I can go make my mother proud of me
