I Don't Want to Be

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 the birth of two souls in one
Part of where I'm goin' is knowin' where I'm comin' 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 lookin' 'round rooms wonderin' what I gotta do
And 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 to notice?
Am I 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 lookin' 'round rooms wonderin' what I gotta do
And who I'm supposed to be
I don't wanna be anything other than me

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 tellin' everybody

I don't wanna be any...
I don't wanna be...

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 lookin' 'round rooms wonderin' what I gotta do
And who I'm supposed to be
I don't wanna be anything other than me

I don't wanna be (Other than what I've been tryna be lately)
I don't wanna be anything other than me
I don't wanna be (Other than what I've been tryna be lately)
I don't wanna be anything other than me
