Songtext

0:08Please don't mistake me or try to make me
0:11The shadow of anybody else
0:15I ain't the him or her you think I am
0:19I'm just trying hard to be myself
0:22Though society's goal is to be part of the whole
0:26That may sound good to you not to me
0:31Let me be let me be
0:33To think like I want to
0:35Let me be let me be
0:37That's all I ask of you
0:39I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
0:50Don't try to plan me or understand me
0:53I can't stand to be understood
0:57I could never give in to or ever live up to
1:01Being like you think I should
1:04I've got some inner need that I'm tryin' to heed
1:08I can't take hand-me-down destiny
1:13Let me be let me be
1:15To think like I want to
1:17Let me be let me be
1:19That's all I ask of you
1:21I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
1:32Don't try to change me or rearrange me
1:36To satisfy the selfishness in you
1:39I'm not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day
1:43And I'm not a pawn to be told how to move
1:46I'm sorry I ain't the fool you thought would play by your rules
1:50A 'To each is own' philosophy
1:56Let me be let me be
1:58To think like I want to
1:59Let me be let me be
2:01That's all I ask of you
2:03I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
2:08I said that's all I ever can be
2:12I said that's all I ever can be
2:15I said that's all I ever can be
Please don't mistake me or try to make me
The shadow of anybody else
I ain't the him or her you think I am
I'm just trying hard to be myself
Though society's goal is to be part of the whole
That may sound good to you  not to me
Let me be  let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be  let me be
That's all I ask of you
I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
Don't try to plan me or understand me
I can't stand to be understood
I could never give in to or ever live up to
Being like you think I should
I've got some inner need that I'm tryin' to heed
I can't take  hand-me-down destiny
Let me be  let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be  let me be
That's all I ask of you
I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
Don't try to change me or rearrange me
To satisfy the selfishness in you
I'm not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day
And I'm not a pawn to be told how to move
I'm sorry I ain't the fool you thought would play by your rules
A 'To each is own' philosophy
Let me be  let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be  let me be
That's all I ask of you
I am what I am and that's all I ever can be
I said that's all I ever can be
I said that's all I ever can be
I said that's all I ever can be
