I gotta be

You hear it everyday
Like a melody
That makes you sing along
You see it everywhere
The reality of trying to belong

And I know it should all make sense
But I can't live for someone else's dream
Oh no ~
I gotta be me

'Cause even when they try to make me
I won't be no ordinary

I gotta be me
I gotta break these chains and find a way to be
All I can be
I gotta step outside and live my life so free
It's all I need
Even if sorrow is what tomorrow has to bring
I gotta be
I gotta be me

You see it everywhere
On the TV shows
And the magazines
You hear it everyday
On the radio
They're telling you just who to be

And I know it should all make sense
But I can't live for someone else's dream
Oh no ~
I gotta be me

'Cause even when they try to make me
I won't be no ordinary

I gotta be me
I gotta break these chains and find a way to be
All I can be
I gotta step outside and live my life so free
It's all I need
Even if sorrow is what tomorrow has to bring
I gotta be
I gotta be me

I gotta be me
'Cause I can't breathe unless I'm standing
Three sheets(?) through the breeze
'Cause it's my dream to live a life that's ordinary

I gotta be me
I gotta break these chains and set me free

I gotta be me
I gotta break these chains and find a way to be
All I can be
I gotta step outside and live my life so free
It's all I need
Even if sorrow is what tomorrow has to bring
I gotta be
I gotta be me

I gotta be me
I gotta break these chains and find a way to be
All I can be
I gotta step outside and live my life so free
It's all I need...
