So I say
Be what you wanna be
Don't let them steal your dreams
Be what you wanna be
They only think in memes
Be what you wanna be
Don't let them steal your dreams

Some dude always telling me
I can't do this, I can't do that
I can't possibly be qualified
I'm too ugly, I'm too fat

Not rich enough, not poor enough
Not strong enough, not geek enough
Don't say enough, say too much
Can't stick the shift, can't pop the clutch

Can't sink the putt, can't drain the three
Can't fix a truck, can't sail the seas
Gay enough, not gay enough
Not nice enough, not sane or tough

An impolite bastard, I'm fucking rude
Not very smart, I'm just some dude
My thoughts don't matter, my ideas suck
Their advice for me, take a flying fuck

No, no, no
That isn’t how any of this goes
I’m in charge
Of my own destiny
Go, go, go
Get outta my fuckin' face
You get no citations
In my biography
So I say
Be what you wanna be
Don't let them steal your dreams

Um, well actually
Shut your mouth and stuff your sorries
Get your sack up off of my back
And let me show you my attitude

I am here to disrupt
Every thing you believe
Move past your bullshit life
Continue to strive and achieve

Their dogshit double standards
Mean jack shit to me
Be what you wanna be
And through all their fucking lies see

They'll shut you up and shut you down
A river of tears they want you to drown
They stab you with their steely eyes
They only crave your demise

No, no, no
That isn’t how any of this goes
I’m in charge
Of my own destiny
Go, go, go
Get outta my fuckin' face
You get no citations
In my biography
So I say
Be what you wanna be
Don't let them steal your dreams
Be what you wanna be
They only think in memes
Be what you wanna be
Don't let them steal your dreams
Be what you wanna be
Don't you serve kings or queens
