Not Today ©

I’m so used to running around that now my feet don’t make a sound when they hit the ground
I try and accept everything I see and everyone I meet to the best of my ability
People say things to slow me down, when most of the time they don’t know what they’re talking about
As I get older I’m getting better at shutting them out before the words come out their mouth

Not today cause I’m alive and I feel fine
There’s nothing but blue skies
I’m getting lost in a song that’s on the radio
But I’m not singing the blues this time
Not today, not today, not today

I can feel you looking at me so why do you stare if you don’t like what you see
Yeah I’ve got tattoos and earrings, now we can find something better to talk about
Don’t you think?
People say things to slow me down when all I really want to do is be myself
So if you don’t have anything positive to say, do me a favor
Take it somewhere else, man, I don’t want to hear it

Not today cause I’m alive and I feel fine
There’s nothing but blue skies
I’m getting lost in a song that’s on the radio
But I’m not singing the blues this time
Not today, not today, not today

Finally I’m getting a little more comfortable in my skin
I like where my life’s going when I look at where I’ve been
Now I may never measure up and you may always win but not today

I’m so used to running around that now my feet don’t make a sound when they hit the ground
So if you don’t have anything positive to say do me a favor don’t bring me down

Not today cause I’m alive and I feel fine
There’s nothing but blue skies
I’m getting lost in a song that’s on the radio
But I’m not singing the blues this time
Not today, not today, not today
