David Dunn - This Is For You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm closing my eyes
To beautiful faces
I'm bailin' the ship
To new places
I'm doing all I can to keep myself locked in my own cage

[Verse 2]
I'm hitting the snooze
On a perfect morning
I give up adventure
And go for the boring
I don't like who I am, but I won't take the steps that I wanna take

[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Hook]
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you

[Verse 2]
I stay on the beach
I won't go in the water
I won't take a chance
On what I've been offered
I'm doing all I can to play it safe and make sure that I'm comfortable


[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Hook]
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you

[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Outro]
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you, oh


This is for you
You know that this is for you

Verse 1]
I'm closing my eyes
To beautiful faces
I'm bailin' the ship
To new places
I'm doing all I can to keep myself locked in my own cage

[Verse 2]
I'm hitting the snooze
On a perfect morning
I give up adventure
And go for the boring
I don't like who I am, but I won't take the steps that I wanna take

[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Hook]
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you

[Verse 2]
I stay on the beach
I won't go in the water
I won't take a chance
On what I've been offered
I'm doing all I can to play it safe and make sure that I'm comfortable


[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Hook]
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you
You who are afraid to be you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you

[Chorus]
I'm anyone and everyone, who'd ever settled for a life they never wanted to live
I'm everything you hated, everything you never wanted anyone to know you'd become

[Outro]
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you
This is for you, oh

I heard your song "I'm ready to be myself", and looked you up on youtube to listen to other songs, and I feel like I found a diamond............"Thank you for your gift of Song and for your love of Jesus Christ". I feel like God divinely placed your music in my life.....and what a gift He has given me. Keep doing what you do David, because you are bringing healing to a lot of broken hearts and wounded souls......May God Bless you, keep you, and continue stretching you and using you to bring in the harvest! I will cover you in prayer as you continue to use your gift for the glory of our God!

A beautiful, multi-faceted diamond. Agreed! <3

Love this song, brightens my day when I listen to it :)

one small hitch <3

Wait, how was he on the voice if he had songs 2 years ago?

This is also a great song!!! Love this guy!! I have shared this on Twitter & FB to help spread this guys name out there, he deserves to be heard!

Seven years later I still love this guy, his voice, his lyrics, his personality, his spirit!! He is amazing!!! His music really hits home!! It clicks and it makes me think, and realize that even when I feel alone in my battles at times, I'm not really alone, Jesus Christ our Savior is here with me, to give me strength, to help me up when I have fallen. That I can be forgiven, that there is life after death, and that there is always hope. Thank you David Dunn for sharing your God Given talent with the world! You have made a difference in many lives!!
