If I don't say anything, it's wrong

If I said it, it wouldn't come out right

It's been keeping me up all night

Half my life I've been told to shut up

So how am I gonna open up?

Wish you could just read my mind

If I shared all of me

Would you run away?

If I sugarcoat what I had to say in poetry

Would it make you stay?

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks

And follow my heart, unafraid of the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

They say... either way, you win

If you're feeling it, why you gotta hold it in?

What is meant to be will be

But all their wisdom doesn't help me now

I'm scared and I gotta find out how to speak my mind

Without metaphors and rules and rhymes

I'm still making mine

I hope you know what I mean when I'm acting mean

'Cause I don't see what I mean when I'm caught in between

And I'm afraid the real you is alluding me

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks

And follow my heart, unafraid of the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

With you I'm ripped wide open at the seams

I'm not that tough

But you could hear the song inside of me

But it's not enough

All the things I wanna say to you

Read it on my face

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

Had all the words to speak my feelings

I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks

And follow my heart, unafraid of the truth

Even if I stood alone

I didn't know how it was gonna go

Even if the water was cold

I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born bob dylan

Even if I stood alone

Didn't know how it was gonna go

Gotta get it off my chest

And hope for the best

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan

I wish I was born Bob Dylan
