[Verse 1]
Searching for greatness in a sea of the dying and shameless, uh
A sea of the aimless, I don’t want to be one of the nameless
I'ma wake up with the mindset that one day I’m gonna make it
And I don’t think I’ll be fine if I don’t break my limitations
Don’t try to stop me, I exist to write my own story
I’ll make a decision if I want some peace or if I want the glory, ah
I don’t want a life that is complacent or possibly boring, ah
I just want a life that is worth every day exploring, ah

[Chorus]
My whole life I just wanted someone who would notice me
My whole life I just wanted to be somebody to be
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be grea-ea-ea-eat (Yeah, I just wanna be great)
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be grea-ea-ea-eat
Grea-ea-ea-eat

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
This is a statement to appreciate all that is vacant
It’s yours for the taking if you make up your mind you can take it
I’m never complacent, I would work in a mansion or basement, yeah
There’s no replacement for persistence and some patience, yeah
In this life, I wanna be soaring, to feel sun inside when it’s pouring
And I’ll fight 'til anxiety is foreign, I’m so sick of my mind's extortion
[Chorus]
My whole life I just wanted someone who would notice me
My whole life I just wanted to be somebody to be
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be grea-ea-ea-eat (Yeah, I just wanna be great)
Yeah, I just wanna be great
Yeah, I just wanna be grea-ea-ea-eat
Grea-ea-ea-eat
