Me

I Won't Be Someone Else
That's Something I Can't Be
I'm Really Nothing Special
But I Kind of Do like Me

I Didn't Used to Be That Way
I Was Weak and Couldn't Win
But Now I Do  it's Very Nice
I Didn't Know "Me" Then

I Am Proud of Who I Am
And I Honor What I Say
That Is All I Have for Me
It's What Gets Me Through Each Day

To Yourself Be True...
That's Been Said Before
But it Really Packs a Wallop
Since I Understand it More
