Different Man

Born a life, 9 to 5

Gonna work 'til you die

Gonna hurt

Gonna learn to take it like a man

Find a girl, make a wife

Dig a fence, paint it white

What if I had another plan

What if I was made for the stage

What if I was made for the lights

What if I was chosen to write the stories

Wasn't built to work the line

Oh, what if I was different

Would I wanna be different?

Man, it's cold, crack of dawn

Hear that old rooster crow

Coffees on, and it ain't never gonna change

Another night, same fight

Same girl, same guy

What if I wanna break the mundane

What if I was made for the stage

What if I was made for the lights

What if I was chosen to write the stories

Wasn't built to work the line

Oh, what if I was different

Would I wanna be different

Feels like I'm stuck in this rut

Tryin' to spin my way out, I can't figure it out

Don't know how

How I'm supposed to tell mama and daddy

Without them mad at me but I'm breaking down

I'm breaking down

What if I was made for the stage

What if I was made for the lights

What if I was chosen to write the stories

Wasn't built to work the line

Oh, what if I was different

Would I wanna be different

I wanna be different

I wanna be different
