[Chant/Intro]
[Verse 1]
I’m not the guy who says “I’m the guy”
Always been self-effacing
I’m in the room, you won’t see me soon
Always been self-effacing
[Pre-Refrain 1]
Compliments come but my rule of thumb is
Under duress say all my success is
All due to them, on them I depend
[Refrain]
And I’m self-effacing
And I’m self-effacing
And I’m self-effacing
[Verse 2]
My resume is dull and it’s gray
Always been self-effacing
Want to be known as someone unknown
Always been self-effacing
[Pre-Refrain 2]
Why can’t I pose? Wear flashier clothes
Inflate who I am, a little flim-flam?
Referring to me, I’m third person me
[Verse 1]
I’m not the guy who says “I’m the guy”
Always been self-effacing
I’m in the room, you won’t see me soon
Always been self-effacing
[Pre-Refrain 1]
Compliments come but my rule of thumb is
Under duress say all my success is
All due to them, on them I depend
[Refrain]
And I’m self-effacing
And I’m self-effacing
And I’m self-effacing
[Verse 2]
My resume is dull and it’s gray
Always been self-effacing
Want to be known as someone unknown
Always been self-effacing
[Pre-Refrain 2]
Why can’t I pose? Wear flashier clothes
Inflate who I am, a little flim-flam?
Referring to me, I’m third person me
