Let Me Be

Please don't mistake me or try to make me

The shadow of anybody else

I ain't the him or her you think I am

I'm just trying hard to be myself

Oh, society's goal is to be part of the whole

That may sound good to you, not to me

Let me be, let me be

To think like I want to

Let me be, let me be

That's all I ask of you

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be

Don't try to plan me or understand me

I can't stand to be understood

I could never give in to or ever live up to

Being like you think I should

I've got some inner need which I'm tryin' to heed

I can't take hand-me-down destiny

Let me be, let me be,

To think like I want to

Let me be, let me be

That's all I ask of you

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be

Don't try to change me or rearrange me

To satisfy the selfishness of you

I'm not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day

And I'm not a pawn to be told how to move

I'm sorry I'm not the fool you thought would play by your rules

But to-each-his-own philosophy

Let me be, let me be,

To think like I want to

Let me be, let me be

That's all I ask of you

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be

I said that's all I ever can be

I said that's all I ever can be

I said that's all I ever can be
