I Don't Want To Be

I don't need to be anything other than a prison guard's son

I don't need to be anything other than a specialist's son

I don't have to be anyone other than the birth of two souls in one

Part of where I'm going is knowing where I'm coming from

I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately

All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind

I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I've got to do

Or
who I'm supposed to be

I don't want to be anything other than me

I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn

I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn

I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn

Am I the only one who noticed?

I can't be the only one who's learned!

Can I have everyone's attention please?

If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave

I came from the mountain; the crust of creation

My whole situation-made from clay to stone

And now I'm telling everybody

I don't want to be anything other than me
