Well i am what i am, what i am could be who you are.
Is there pain when you smile cuz you built a wall around your heart.
Do the thoughts in your head keep you up cuz you feel alone?
(thoughts in your head, thoughts, thoughts in your head.)
And are you strong enough to be yourself?
-----------------------------
[chorus]
Papa used to say your just a loser and you're never gonna have what it takes.
Mama used to say all that loud music you play ain't going to get you nowhere.
Now you gotta be yourself
Now you gotta be yourself
----------------------------
if you cried would you hide what you want all the world to kno?
and you if you belive the love would you let it show?
Are you in? are you hip? are you cool? do you try too hard?
or are you stong enough to be yourself?
[chorus]x2
If you can't, can't be yourself what are you livin for?
If you can't, can't be yourself you're going to lose it all.
If you can't, can't be yourself what are you living for?
You're going to find someday you gotta run away, you gotta run, run, run,
run away...
[chorus]
