Originality
Don't be what they want you to be
Love and embrace originality
You don't have to wear white shirts and skinny jeans
Wear bandanas and orange tees
Life is full of people who want to change you
Rearrange you, exchange you
Put chains on you
Disengage you
Keep focus and do you
Be what you wanna be
What you gotta be
Cause no one can stop you...but you
I remember when I tried to be someone else
I wasn't being myself
I was talking how they talked
Walking how they walked
I tried going to the place they went
But I couldn't quite fit in
I was never comfortable in that skin
But only the skin that I'm in
Be yourself because everyone else is taken
Don't let yourself be mistaken
The only person who can be the best you is you
Be an original because they only come far and few
