I said
There's a manual on how exactly to begin the day
What you shall eat and wear to follow the pattern
If we keep going in these tracks the future will probably be dark for our kids
Because the ideals chase them until they are destroyed by them
All these crazy demands, my eyes bleed from them
Buy, buy, buy things, I vomit on all these commercials
We're creating images that we chase
Getting even more reason to complain about
Our lives and what way we should be
We're running from the way we were made
I want to feel, I want to walk and look like you
That's the message we're sending out right now
People feel like shit and depression has broke lose
Ah it's hard, some don't make it
When it's hard to stand up for yourself and stay struggling
When we're lured to change most about ourselves

I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to change me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to restrict me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to direct me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to control me

So let me be free and let me make my own choices
So let me be free and be just like I want to be
So just let me be me
So just let me be me
So just let me be me
I've tried to be hi, her, this and that
before I dare standing up for my identity
afraid to be considered a minority
It sounds sick but I'm saying it today, I know
With beard down to my belly
But it was different from 6-9
and high school was one hell of a pain
Think others thoughts instead of my own
Wore the most fancy clothes I couldn't afford
In to play with those
Tough guys, Pretty girls, with qoutation signs
Nothing I could've done was enough
And I'm happy about it now
Because I had to find my own way
And that became the way out
If you want to find yours, sing along

I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to change me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to restrict me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to direct me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to control me

All that I have is my life
I only want to be me
So that I can live and be free
so that I can spend my time
Life was given to me as a gift, to make something good
So is my feeling good, then it's probably something to keep keep keep

I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to change me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
but they're trying to restrict me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to direct me
I wanto be, I want to be, I only want to be me me me
But they're trying to control me
