Someone I'm Not

I seem to wonder,
That I shouldn't change who I am.
To please you, be liked.
I realized I should have taken a stand.

I've come a long way now,
I think you would be surprised.
I bet you're wondering how,
But things happen over time.

*chorus*
See, that I'm not gonna be someone I'm not.
Trust me, I wouldn't change everything I've got.
But I know, I know, I see,
That there's no possibility,
That I'm changing for something too small,
To be someone I'm not...

You made me break down,
I thought I messed up everything.
I wanted to fit in,
Guess that didn't work out.

Did you think I'd stay the same.
Guess what? You're wrong.
Why yes, I have changed,
But the real me isn't gone.

*chorus*
See, that I'm not gonna be someone I'm not.
Trust me, I wouldn't change everything I've got.
But I know, I know, I see,
That there's no possibility,
That I'm changing for something too small,
To be someone I'm not...

I've been told I can't please everyone,
Even if I tried.
So I'm just gonna try to please the ones I love,
With me, myself, and I...

So love me, or hate me,
But I'm not gonna change.
For something way to small...

*chorus*
See, that I'm not gonna be someone I'm not.
Trust me, I wouldn't change everything I've got.
But I know, I know, I see,
That there's no possibility,
That I'm changing for something too small,
To be someone I'm not...
