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 a 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 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 to notice?
I can't be the only one who's learned!

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 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 your 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 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 gotta do,
Or who I'm supposed to be.
I don't want to be anything other than me.

I don't want to be...(fade out)
