Devlin - Just Wanna Be Me lyrics

[Hook] I just wanna be me I just wanna be me Til the day that I'm free You do you, I'll do me [Verse 1] I look back now and I can't explain it Always knew that i was waiting for greatness Mum wanted me to work in the slave shift But I was writing my lyrics in the grave shift Perfecting the style so amazing I rose through the ranks so quick I was blazing Sorry to upset you mother but right now I've gotta do me. Time's wasting I had a scheme and a dream. Time that I prove I could stand on my feet Jab or weave here in the city full of feats and fiends Life don't stop, time don't sleep I feel like I'm lost My ears are on fire, they speak And they all think they know what's best but... [Hook] I just wanna be me I just wanna be me Til the day that I'm free You do you and I'll do me [Verse 2] They laugh at your vision, make a lasting decision To let your heart be driven Like the Batmobile with the Stig in Keep sh** real in the field no fibbin' Real we can feel cause that's how we're living We're all different here in Great Britain So embrace yourself and envision that your skin never left you imprisoned Be whatever you wanna be man, k** 'em You're unlike any other, aim for the sky my brother Do it your way, this life is a b**h but love her In the doorway I see the ghost of a soul that I knew last summer Love to your girl and your kids and your mother We can't hold joy without stifer [Hook] I just wanna be me I just wanna be me Til the day that I'm free You do you and I'll do me [Verse 3] They're like Devs do a grime track, I'm like why, would you like that? Would you lend me your score if things got raw like before on the floor no money up in my bank I didn't think so mate so let me do me in this life while I wait to right my mistakes Wipe these slates everyday is a new blind date I'm unsure of what I just might face but as long as I'm true to myself what this path might lead to is fate I'll follow this road like that Dorothy girl Even if the bricks ain't golden and I bet I do it historically well I ain't no big shot in your focus just me in this illogical world [Hook] I just wanna be me I just wanna be me Til the day that I'm free You do you and I'll do me
