Luyện nghe bài hát The Competition

I never to be better than my friends
I wanted to prove wrong the people in my head
the ones who told me I'd be better of
the who told me that I would never win

when I delivered newspapers they I was too slow
when I was a barista they said I made lousy
when I worked in retail they said I was a
much too for school and much too lazy for a job

so I rode my bike lightning
and I cappuccinos that would make the angels sing
took two showers a day and I dressed up like a
shook my fist in my own face and said show you who's the best

I wrote the kinds of teachers hang up on their walls
I was employee of the at seven different shopping malls
and one playing football I pulled the tendons in my leg
to prove that I was I hopped on one foot
and up the game

I thought if I succeeded I'd be happy and they'd go
but first thing in the I'd still wake up and I'd hear them say
"you're fat, ugly, and stupid, you should really be
no one ever like you you're not good at anything"

and I'd rise to the challenge
but other times I'd feel so bad that I not get out of bed
and on the days I stayed in bed I sang and sang and
about how crappy I felt no realizing how many people would relate

now people send me emails that say thanks for saying the things they know how to say
and the people in my still visit me sometimes
and they bring all of friends but I don't mind
I play my guitar like
when I sing I it when you sing too loud and clear
voices different tones all sayin' "yeah, we're not alone"
I got good at feeling bad and that's why I'm here
I got good at feeling bad and why I'm still here
I got good at feeling bad and that's why I'm still
