Life has come a long way since yesterday
I say
And it's not the same old thing
over again
I say
Just do what you feel and
don't you fool yourself
I say
Cause I can't make you happy
unless I am, I say
I say, I
Got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
Day in
day out I've asked many questions
I say
Only to find the truth
it never changes
I say
If you don't deal with it
it keeps killing you a little by little
I say
Call me selfish if you will
my life I alone can live,
I say, I say, I
Got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
in a way now
Got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
I don't care if it hurts
I'm tired of lies and all these games
I've reached a point in life
aey no longer can I be this way
Don't come crying to me
I too have shed my share of tears
I'm moving on, yes I'm grooving on
aey well I'm finally free
I've got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
in a way y'all
Got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself
c'mon now
Got to be true
got to be true
got to be true to myself
in a way y'all
Got to be true
got to be true
got to be true to myself
