Lyrics

[00:07.58] Whether I'm right
[00:10.45] or whether I'm wrong
[00:14.67] Whether I find a place in this world
[00:18.02] or never belong
[00:21.78] I gotta be me
[00:25.36] I've gotta be me
[00:29.28] What else can I be but what I am
[00:37.31] I want to live
[00:40.67] not merely survive
[00:44.62] And I won't give up this dream of life
[00:48.14] that keeps me alive
[00:52.14] I gotta be me
[00:55.86] I've gotta be me
[00:59.72] The dream that I see makes me what I am
[01:07.13] That far-away prize
[01:11.21] a world of success
[01:14.92] is waiting for me if I heed the call
[01:22.34] I won't settle down
[01:25.90] won't settle for less
[01:29.62] As long as there's a chance
[01:33.28] that I can have it all
[01:37.54] I'll go it alone
[01:41.44] that's how it must be
[01:45.19] I can't be right for somebody else
[01:48.88] if I'm not right for me
[01:52.82] I gotta be free
[01:56.25] I've gotta be free
[02:00.12] Daring to try, to do it or die
[02:03.90] I've gotta be me
[02:08.09] I'll go it alone
[02:11.63] that's how it must be
[02:15.29] I can't be right for somebody else
[02:19.06] if I'm not right for me
[02:23.04] I gotta be free
[02:26.22] I just gotta be free
[02:30.04] Daring to try, to do it or die
[02:38.97] I gotta be me
[02:45.27]
