Antoinette - I Wanna Be Me lyrics

(Me!) (me!) (Me!) (me!) (me!) (Me!) (me!) (Me!) (me!) (me!) Has anybody ever tried to change ya Shape ya, mix and twist, rearrange ya? And tell ya, you gotta, gotta Become a lawyer, politician or a doctor? Why, oh why, I wonder If you ain't all of that, you're a bleep and a blunder (Yo, that's wack) Word up, Gee Yo, why can't they see? I wanna be me, yeah Oh-oh Me, yeah Me, nobody else (2x) My oh my, I must've shocked ya I'm paid in full, but I'm no doctor I got a mind of my own, and I used it And as for an occupation I choose this Just because your path I didn't take Doesn't mean capital A made a mistake That's the problem, you try to rule us You think you school us, but do nothin but fool us Too much gold and too much make-up My dress too short? Yo, you better wake up Cause I ain't you and you ain't me So, why can't you see I wanna be me, yeah Oh-oh Me, yeah Me, nobody else (2x) (Me!) (me!) (me!) (2x) I wanna be - Me, therefore I have to live up To my expectations, so I can't give up Cause one downs me and jokes But just like smoke that happens to provoke (Me) (Trust it) So bust It And keep on strivin and keep on strugglin Cause those who talk small don't mean nothin And you gots to be the best that you can be And as long as it's up to me - I wanna be me, yeah Oh-oh Me, yeah Me, nobody else (2x) So - if anybody ever tries to change ya Shape ya, mix and twist, rearrange ya And tell ya, you gotta, gotta Become a lawyer, politician or a doctor Tell em: you ain't got the right to choose for me
