Not That Good
This song is dedicated to Saara Aalto, who has also partly inspired this story, as well as other gifted and original artists who have not received the appreciation they deserve because of the fact that they have not fit into a certain commercial mold of record companies or some of their bosses. She has also been told that she should not be too diverse. Fortunately, he was not discouraged and didn't give up her own style, but found appreciation from abroad - and finally she can perform as her real self on a big international arena, that is, in Eurovision song contest.
Thanks to Miira for her wonderful interpretation of my song. I used The Orchestra library in the arrangement for the first in larger scale.

Lyrics
You can say that I'm sweet and cute
but I can read on your lips:
good but 'not that good'
I don't fit in your resume
I'm not made of Chardonnay
but I can be a different taste
every day.
Today I chose my own course
didn't follow yours,
I was free to open avoided doors
to challenge myself and principles in
pre-made scores.
I've been wrong, hurt
and often misunderstood
but I've fought through rocks
to rise above 'not that good'.
I don't play by the mainstream book
and if I don't sell my soul
I'll be still 'not that good'
I may not fit into your mold
or bring you silver and gold
but I can tell my unyielding tale
that's honest and bold.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
I felt not accepted
I was not that kind you could coerce,
'not that good'
because I was diverse.
But I didn't have to meet expectation of anyone
I could walk candidly
like I had won.
