So many people
Try to be like someone else and
Cover their heroes - their whole life long

So many people
Don't know what they wanna be instead of
Listen to what they feel inside

I just try to be myself
I know that it's the hard way

But in the and it's easier
And I want your respect
I need your respect

So many people - so many sorrows
So many faces - crying in the night
So many peolpe - believe in tomorrow
So many faces - crying in the night

I don't wanna be someone else
I just wanna be whatever I want
I just wanna get whatever I need

I don't want no preconceived notion
I don't wanna stop - I wanna be in motion
no excuses for what I am

I just try to be myself
I know that it's the hard way

But in the and it's easier
And I want your respect
I need your respect

I can not longer hide the pain
Why do all the people wanna be the same
I'm not accountable to anyone
as long as you can soothe you coscience
cause you are the one

So many people - so many sorrows
So many faces - crying in the night
So many peolpe - believe in tomorrow
So many faces - crying in the night
