Whether I'm Right or Whether I'm Wrong Whether I find a place in this world or never belong I've got to be me, I've got to be me What else can I be but what I am I want to live, not merely survive And I won't give up this dream of life that keeps me alive I've got to be me, I've got to be me The dream that I see makes me what I am That faraway prize, a world of success It's waiting for me if I heed the call I won't settle down or settle for less As long as there's half a chance that I can have it all I'll go it alone, that's how it must be I can't be right for somebody else if I'm not right for me I've got to be free, I've got to be free I'll try, I'll do it, I'll die, I've got to be me
