I see you passing by-I don't know where-I don't know why   You choose to go the way that you're goin' now   You've been a friend of mine for many years for a long time, but   You just aren't you today, so what's on your mind   You just won't speak about it-think about it-be about it   Gotta make yourself aware that you're goin' astray   You're trying so hard to fit in      (Chorus)   What you need in something genuine   What you need is something real   What you need is something truthful   I know you do (3x)   'Cause I need it too   What you need (2x)What you want (2x)What you need (2x)something genuine      You cry yourself to sleep-sleep at night but once the night is gone   And you prepare to face a brand new day   You hade yourself behind a mastermind-you're in disguise   It's as if you try to put a mask on your pain   You dont' know who you are-what your about-where are you now   You're becoming someone that you don't want to be   You're trying so hard to fit in      (Chorus)      He loves you for who you are and who you will be   Don't fear living in truth there's reality   I don't have all the answers but I know One who does   And I know there's freedom and truth   I go to Him because      What you need is something genuine   I know you do   What you need is something truthful-genuine   What you need (2x)What you want (2x)What you need (2x)something genuine      What He has is something genuine   Who He is is someone real   What He gives is something truthful   It's what He has-it's who He is-it's what He gives   And I need Him too   What you need (2x)What you want (2x)What you need (2x)something genuine
