Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In 1993
I decided to be me
But like a tree, you need to grow it
[Verse 2]
Oh, in 1993
I started to create
And I found out that this is me
[Verse 3]
The story starts the first of the first
Born to this life not to be the last in line
Like that
Always running without knowing where
[Verse 4]
I struggle staying inside the box
If I can't be myself, then who am I supposed to be?
Like that
Those big dreams are never free
[Verse 5]
Will I ever be like normal people?
Will I ever work from 9 to 5?
Will I ever want to choose the easy life?
Yeah, I'm waiting for the moment
[Verse 6]
When I grow up, I, I, I wanna be me
I, I wanna be me when I grow up, I
When I grow up, I, I, I wanna be me
I, I wanna be me when I grow up, I
[Verse 7]
I always see the worst in me
When I should be seeing the best in me every time
Like that
I should be my own biggest fan
[Verse 8]
Letting my past control me
When I should be making history
Better now than then
I wish the five-year-old me could see
[Verse 9]
Will I ever be like normal people?
Will I ever work from 9 to 5?
Will I ever want to choose the easy life?
Yeah, I'm waiting for the moment
[Verse 10]
When I grow up, I, I, I wanna be me
I, I wanna be me when I grow up, I
When I grow up, I, I, I wanna be me
I, I wanna be me when I grow up, I
[Verse 11]
I'm wanting to believe
What I really see
Is who I'm meant to be, yeah
