Ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh
Ain't got nothing left to prove
Man, I'm finally free
Damn, it feels good to be me

You're shining
When you act yourself
Wish I coulda learned that
'Fore I went through hell
Lord, I was trying
To flip the cards I was dealt
I was tired of hiding
I had some words with myself

I said stop
Tryna be the things that I'm not
Tryna be like everyone else
Tryna fit inside of that box
Oh-oh, you got
Magic inside of your heart
Had it right from the start
Copycatting's dirty
Nothing worse than being thirsty

Ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh
I'm no good at being you
My philosophy
Damn, it feels good to be me
Ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh
Ain't got nothing left to prove
Man, I'm finally free
Damn, it feels good to be me

Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Damn, it feels good to be me

You don't start living
'Til you kill that shade
So I won't listen
To the hate parade
I know that I'm not
Everyone's cup of tea
So people spit me right out now
When they ask me to leave

That's when I stop
Tryna be the things that I'm not
Tryna be like everyone else
Tryna fit inside of that box
Oh-oh, you got
Magic inside of your heart
Had it right from the start
Copycatting's dirty
Nothing worse than being thirsty

Ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh
I'm no good at being you
My philosophy
Damn, it feels good to be me
Ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh-wah-ooh
Ain't got nothing left to prove
Man, I'm finally free
Damn, it feels good to be me

Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Damn, it feels good to be me
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Damn, it feels good to be me
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Damn, it feels good to be
