I’ve Gotta Be Me

LETRA

I’ve Gotta Be Me

Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrong
Whether I find a place in this world or never belong
I gotta be me, I've gotta be me
What else can I be but what I am?

I want to live (Do-do, do-do), not merely survive (Do-do, do-do)
And I won't give up this dream of life that keeps me alive (Do-do, do-do)
I gotta be me, I gotta be me
The dream that I see makes me what I am

That far away prize (That far away prize), a world of success (A world of success)
Is waiting for me if I heed the call
I won't settle down, I won't settle for less
As long as there's a chance that I can have it all

I'll go it alone (Do-do, do-do), that's how it must be (Do-do, do-do)
And I can't be right for somebody else
If I'm not right for me (Do-do, do-do)
I gotta be free, I've gotta be free
Daring to try, to do it or die
I've gotta be me

I'll go it alone (Do-do, do-do), that's how it must be (Do-do, do-do)
I can't be right for somebody else
If I'm not right for me (Do-do, do-do)
I gotta be free, I just gotta be free
Daring to try, to do it or die
I've gotta be me
