I cant afford a night on the town
Dont have no money to burn
Life in the shadows is getting me down
Seems everywhere that I turn
I meet a brick wall
Im gonna knock'em down some day
Im gonna walk tall
Get off the wrong road
Im gonna find myself a better way
Thats for sure
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
Ive seen them castin glances at me
With disapprovin eyes
If they keep looking
Their gonna see
Out of the ashes Ill rise
Therell be a new dawn
Ill but an end to all their mockin
Cause Ill be reborn
Ill make a new life
Wont ever hear those hard times knockin
At my door
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
Im gonna be the man that god made
Aint gonna settle for less
From now on youll get the real thing
Im being me
Im gonna be a success
Oh Yes
Im thinking different
Im stepping out
Find me a new way to walk
I wont surrender to feelings or doubts
People will hear when I talk
Aint gonna stay down
Aint gonna let this old world kick me
Although Im way down
Im gonna aim high
Maybe lady luck will pick off the floor
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
Im gonna be the man that god made
Aint gonna settle for less
From now on youll get the real thing
Im being me
Im gonna be a success
Yeah yeah
I cant afford a night on the town
Dont have no money to burn
Life in the shadows is getting me down
Seems everywhere that I turn
I meet a brick wall
Im gonna knockem down some day
Im gonna walk tall
Get off the wrong road
Find myself a better way
Thats for sure
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
Aint gonna be a counterfeit man no more
