I Don't Want to Be (Live)

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 wanna 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 gotta do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't wanna 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 wanna 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 gotta do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't wanna be anything other than me, ah

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 wanna 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 gotta do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't wanna be anything other than me

I don't wanna be, hey, yeah, hey, yeah

I don't wanna be, oh-oh

I don't wanna be

I don't wanna be anything

Anything other than me

(Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah) I don't wanna be (Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah) I don't wanna be (Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah) I don't wanna be (Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah) I don't wanna be
