so sick of trying to be something i'm not
so stop selling me the way to the top
you don't have to sell your soul
and you can't buy someone who's free
i won't be nobody else
good things happen when i'm me
no one needs one more pretender
we can heal and let it go
life is short and hearts are tender
the truth is powerful you know i'm living my music
so take it or leave it i sing free
no more pretending or trying to bend it
i'll stay me just how i started
stay open hearted
cause i believe i'm living the music
take it or leave it i see free
too many dreams getting fever
wind up signing with the devil for you
you don't have to sell your soul
and you can't buy someone who's free
i won't be nobody else
good things happen when i'm me
living my musics
take it or leave it i sing free
no more pretending or trying to bending
i'll stay me just how i started
stay open hearted
cuz i believe
i live in my music
take it or leave it i sing free
just how i started
stay open hearted
cause i believe
i live in the music
take it or leave it i seem free
