If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave I came from the mountain The crust of creation My whole situation-made from clay to stone And now I'm telling everybody I don't want to be Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately All I have to do Is think of me and I have peace of mind I'm tired of looking 'round rooms Wondering what I've got to do Or who I'm supposed to be I don't want to be anything other than me I don't want to be I don't want to be I don't want to be...
