[Verse 1]
Please don't mistake me or try to make me
A shadow of anybody else
I'm not the him or her you think I am
I'm just tryin' hard to be myself
Yeah, society's goal is to be part of the whole
It may sound good to you, not to me
[Chorus]
Ah, let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That's all I ask of ya
I am what I am, and that's all I ever can be
[Verse 2]
Don't try to plan me or understand me
I can't stand to be understood
I can never live up to or ever give in to
Bein' like you think I should
I've got some inner need that I'm tryin' to heed
I can't take hand-me-down destiny
[Chorus]
Ah, let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That's all I ask of ya
I am what I am, and that's all I ever can be
Please don't mistake me or try to make me
A shadow of anybody else
I'm not the him or her you think I am
I'm just tryin' hard to be myself
Yeah, society's goal is to be part of the whole
It may sound good to you, not to me
[Chorus]
Ah, let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That's all I ask of ya
I am what I am, and that's all I ever can be
[Verse 2]
Don't try to plan me or understand me
I can't stand to be understood
I can never live up to or ever give in to
Bein' like you think I should
I've got some inner need that I'm tryin' to heed
I can't take hand-me-down destiny
[Chorus]
Ah, let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That's all I ask of ya
I am what I am, and that's all I ever can be
