They use words like "polished," they call it "composed"
Like I'm standing in a light that I've always known
They see the "handsome" lines, the "attentive" eyes
The way I hold the room without even trying
But a suit is just a suit, and a smile is just a gate
To a house built on things that I won't leave to fate
Because enthusiasm is the engine, it's the only way to move
It's the heat inside the heart with a point to prove
I'm "stubbornly persistent" in the pursuit of the real
If I don't feel it deeply, then it's not the deal
Yeah, they admire the finish, the "put together" man
But I'm just a "big heart" with a "determined" plan
I'm "sincere" to a fault, I'm "genuine" by choice
Because "compassion" is a song that requires a voice
They call it "admirable" to never back down
But it's just the "driven" blood when there's no one around
I'm "stubborn" on the vision, I'm "sincere" in the grit
I'd rather burn for a second than just dimly sit
Yeahh...I don't need to be the first in or the last one out the door
'Cause I'm not playing games with the clock anymore
I just care a little deeper, I work a little more "Grade A"
With a "competitive edge" that keeps the average at bay
I've proven to the man in the mirror what I'm worth
A "stubborn" kind of standard that I've held since birth
And when the pressure builds up and I need to let it go
I don't waste the lightning, I just let the power flow
It's not about the pedestal or the view from the height
It's about being "genuine" in the middle of the night
I take the frustration and I put it to use
Building a bridge where there used to be a fuse!
Because enthusiasm is everything! It's the only way to move (wo-o-oah)
It's the heat inside the heart with a point to prove...
Composed
Polished
Still driven
Preachin' Enthusiasm.
