    Lyrics

    What is it like?

    I am a child of America
    The land of the free and the brave
    Where we sing the blues
    What is it like for you?
    Here I was raised extravagance
    We had so much that
    I still don’t know what to choose
    What is it like for you?
    Living the way you do
    What is it like to be you?
    I have a past, my inheritance
    I can’t escape all the ways that
    It shapes my view
    What is it like for you?
    I have faith, and it teaches me
    Not to condemn till I’ve been
    In another’s shoes
    What is it like for you?
    Seeing the way you do
    What is it like to be you?

    If I knew, I would hold the key
    To a friend for life, a world at peace
    It begins with those who have
    the grace to ask

    I have a heart... It’s been broken
    Can you be honest enough to say yours is too?
    What is it like for you?
    I know what I’ve been through…
    There is the risk in the question, ‘cause
    Seeing what you see
    Would force me to face myself
    As if I were someone else
    I might have to ask for help
    If I had to face myself

    But when I do, I will hold the key
    To a friend for life, and inner peace
    It begins with those who have
    the grace to ask…
    What is it like to be you?
