The Need to Be

To fulfill the need to be who I am In this world, is all I ask I can't pretend to be something that I am not And I won't wear a mask. Ooh, you touched my face with love in your eyes But will you touch my heart With the understanding that it takes To realize, I just can't play a part. Ooh, it's a need to be true to myself And make my own mistakes. I don't want to lean too hard on someone else No matter what it takes. So if you are sure it's love Just be sure it's love for this thing called me Cause I am who I am and I have the need to be. I'm not fool enough to ever thing That I could be the master of my faith But it's up to me to choose my road in life Rocky may well be the road I take the one I take There's a need to be something more Then just a reflection of a man. I can't survive in someone's shadow I need my very own little spot to stand If you sure it's love Just be sure it's love For me and only me Cause I am what I am and I have the need to be. Just be sure it's love Real real sure it's love For me for little old me Cause I am what I am I am what I am and I have the need to be
