Lyrics
All I Want To Be Is ME

Sometimes it seems like the world is going no where fast
It's seems like I'm in the lead and then I find myself in last
But when I'm in the lead, I find a need to strive for more
It's a random thing this game of life is knocking on my door
This fight is constantly going on inside of me
I always long to be much more then what I see Yeah
That's why I'm on my knees
Please set my mind at ease
Your love is greater then the bluest ocean deep
If I never win first prize or grammys
You've created a soul that's unique
Cause all I really want to be is Me
I don't want the Jone's car
Or the Johnson's that's a fact
I only want a place to sleep
A home where I can hang my hat
Because it's not the things
That dollars buy that makes a man
It's what is found inside
That's always been God's perfect plan
There's a heart in every man that's dying to be free
Creating your own finger print for the whole world to see
Inside everyone individuality
There's something different about each one of us to be
Your own trademark on society
God sees joy in His variety
And all I really want to be is me
Bridge
Just my height, just my size
The way I walk , the way I talk
The color of my eyes
When I smile and when I sing Yeah
It's all a part of me
This is all I want to be is me
In the light of eternity
God's created a soul to see
His love is for everyone who believes
That's why he created you and me
So I could be the person who
God made me
All I've really wanted to be is Me
And all I really want to be
And all I really want to be is Me
