Lately I think there's somethin wrong with me
Gotta take the easy way out and just surrender
Come on everybody help me out

It's all I believe it's everything I breathe
But it's dragging me down takin me under
Come on everybody I need you now
Let me hear the sound 
I gotta start believing

Rise be whoever you are 
Everyone needs to be someone someone
Tonight dance to the beat of the drums
Everyone needs to be someone someone

So this is Showtime gotta shine
Take a new leaf with no dollar sign
Step up to the majors, my saviour
Gettin too old for this bad behaviour
Been lazier, crazier, globed it from the US to Australasia, but I ain't playin 'b, can't you see
Y'all downloadin my life for free
Ok I admit, I'm the culprit, I can't handle it
But I'm workin so hard my hands are gettin frostbit
And I don't wanna quit, and conform to the norm
24/7 till I'm gone just to pay the kids school fees
And the weekly groceries to keep up with the Jonesees!

Rise be whoever you are 
Everyone needs to be someone someone
Tonight dance to the beat of the drums
Everyone needs to be someone someone

Ohohoh be whoever you are
Ohohoh you gotta believe it
Gotta believe it
Gotta believe in love and hope
When hope is gone

Rise be whoever you are 
Everyone needs to be someone someone
Tonight dance to the beat of the drums
Everyone needs to be someone someone
Be someone
Everyone needs to be someone
