I don't need to be anythin' other
Than a prison guard's son
I don't need to be anythin' 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
Anythin' 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've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be
Anythin' 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 noticed?
I can't be the only one who's learned

I don't want to be
Anythin' 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've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be
Anythin' other than me

Now may 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's
Made from clay to stone
And now I'm telling everybody

I don't want to be
Anythin' 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've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be
Anythin' other than me

I don't want to be

Woooah, woooah, woooah

I don't want to be
I don't want to be anything
Anythin' thing other than me

Oooooh, oooooh, oooh

I don't want to be
Aythin' thing other than me
