I Cannot Not Be Me

I am determined to be me no matter what happens No matter who throws a fit No matter what catastrophe rears her ugly head No one can talk me out of it Some strangers have tried In a roundabout way Trying to talk me into being more like them than me It amuses me, but I do not get their phone numbers.

can't be anyone else but you. It's been decided for you. We are all individuals ...

Good idea. I agree wholeheartedly. Frankly, I have no desire to be like everyone else!
