Stop, tryna change your stars,
You know you ain't got that far, it's too hard.
Stop, tryna be someone else,
You know you gotta be yourself, so let go of that shelf.
You, you only know what's best for your persona,
You think there's nothin' else ya got for longer,
But you're stronger, than that.
You never hit it back, you never got the facts,
You only hit the jacks, and bust, for love or lust.
So hey, don't leave today, but I can only say:
I can only be me, can't you see,
Can't you let me be.
I can only be me, I can't be him, her,
He or she. Yeah, I can only be me.
So just see, you'll never be free,
Cause I can only be me.
You try to run, to get out of this chain,
But you ain't up for that game, no, not that strain.
You try to hide, to change what you left behind,
But you know you ain't of that kind, don't lose ur mind.
Stop, being different than you,
There's really nothin' you can do,
But what's true, in this world.
Is it boy vs. girl? You only sit and twirl,
But please do unfurl, and stay don't sway.
So hey, don't you leave today, cause I can only say:
I can only be me, can't you see,
Can't you let me be.
I can only be me, I can't be him, her,
He or she. Yeah, I can only be me.
So just see, you'll never be free,
Cause I can only be me.
I can only be me, can't you see,
Can't you let me be.
I can only be me, I can't be him, her,
He or she. Yeah, I can only be me.
So just see, you'll never be free,
Cause I can only be me.
