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 tryna 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 gotta 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 I don't want to be anything Other than what I've been tryna 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 gotta do Or who I'm supposed to be I don't want to be anything other than me 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 what I've been tryna 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 don't want to be, hey, yeah, hey, yeah I don't want to be, oh, oh I don't want to be I don't want to be anything Anything other than me Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah (I don't want to be) Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah (I don't want to be) Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah (I don't want to be) Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah (I don't want to be)
