about

The lead single off their upcoming album. With sing- along lyrics and a catchy hook, this radio-friendly single highlights the fight for individuality in a world full of predetermined expectations.

lyrics

Verse
Growing up my mother said
You should be like this instead
If you wanna make some friends Then you should be friendly
So I said I”m an introvert
She said introversion doesn’t work If you wanna be something
Gotta do more than just think

Chorus
Every time I try to be like someone else
I lose my mind a little bit it can’t be helped Because I, I, I
Just wanna be myself
Just wanna be myself, self, self

Verse
Father said go fix your face
The one you’ve got now go erase
If you wanna make amends
You should be friendly
Change your hair, go change your clothes Throw on some makeup I suppose
Your best isn’t what you need
But I don’t want you to change me

Chorus
Every time I try to be like someone else
I lose my mind a little bit it can’t be helped Because I, I, I
Just wanna be myself
Just wanna be myself, self, self

Bridge
I won’t fall to your demands
I was born with my own plans I don’t need you to fix me
I know just what’s right for me

Verse
Society says hey here’s this fad
If you stick with us you’ll sure be glad you did
‘Cause in this world we live in
You must follow the system
Don’t take a stand, you’re not in charge And if you try well we’ll just barge right in Tell you what to say, Keep telling you what to think

Chorus
Every time I try to be like someone else
I lose my mind a little bit it can’t be helped Because I, I, I
Just wanna be myself
Just wanna be myself, self, self
(repeat)
