I CAN BE I ONLY
WANT TO BE ME
I'M WHAT I'M AND
THIS IS ALL I CAN BE
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT
I DON'T CARE CAUSE
ALL MY LIFE YOU WAS NEVER
THERE YOU THINK IT'S ALRIGHT
TO PUSH AND SHOVE BUT IF I DID
IT BACK WOULD THAT BE ENOUGH
I'VE ALREADY CRIED AND ALMOST DIED
BUT WERE YOU THERE NO NOT EVEN ALL MY LIFE
YOU OPEN A DOOR AND CALL ME A HOE BUT I DON'T CARE
CAUSE THIS IS ME I'M WHAT I'M AND THIS IS ME
ALL I WANT IS TO BE FREE NO MORE LIE'S NO MORE GAMES
MY LOVE FOR YOU Where NEVER BE THE SAME
I'VE WAITED AND WAITED FOR YOU STOP PLAYING THIS GAME
I'M WHAT I'M AND THIS IS ME I WANT TO BE free AS CAN BE
