Jay Sean Good Enough Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I got my mother's skin I've got my father eyes
It's something that I can't deny
It's nothing that I wanna hide

And even though my roots come from the other side
I didn't think they would mind
Cause I heard that love was blind
But they can't understand, when it comes to me and you
Cause I don't fit their descriptions
Tell me how to change traditions
When there's all of them and one of me

[Chorus:]
How can I change a million minds in this lifetime
What is it I have to do
If I erase my history - what defines me
If I let them change my truth
Would I be Good Enough For You?

[Verse 2:]
I wish they looked at me and they could see beyond
Everything they think I am
Pedigree don't make a man
Don't have to dig too deep to see I'm just like you
What is it they want from me - tell me what more can I prove- Why-
So many can't understand, when it comes to you and I
I don't fit in their descriptions - though I try
To change those old traditions
When it's all of them and one of me

[Chorus:]
How can I change a million minds in this lifetime
What is it I have to do
If I erase my history - what defines me
If I let them change my truth
Would I be Good Enough For You?

(I could lie I could lie I could lie)
Let them take all I knew
Would I be good enough for you

We pretend we have open minds
Yet we judge so fast
Tell me why - to live out my future - yeah
I must surrender my past

[Chorus:]
How can I change a million minds in this lifetime
What is it I have to do
If I erase my history - what defines me
If I let them change my truth
Would I be Good Enough For You?
