Hypocrite (another World) Lyrics - The Samples

Please don't mistake me or try to make me 

The shadow of anybody else 

I ain't the him or her you think I am 

I'm just trying hard to be myself 

Though society's goal is to be part of the whole 

That may sound good to you, not to me 

Let me be, let me be 

To think like I want to 

Let me be, let me be 

That's all I ask of you 

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be 

Don't try to plan me or understand me 

I can't stand to be understood 

I could never give in to or ever live up to 

Being like you think I should 

I've got some inner need that I'm tryin' to heed 

I can't take, hand-me-down destiny 

Let me be, let me be 

To think like I want to 

Let me be, let me be 

That's all I ask of you 

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be 

Don't try to change me or rearrange me 

To satisfy the selfishness in you 

I'm not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day 

And I'm not a pawn to be told how to move 

I'm sorry I ain't the fool you thought would play by your rules 

A 'To each is own' philosophy 

Let me be, let me be 

To think like I want to 

Let me be, let me be 

That's all I ask of you 

I am what I am and that's all I ever can be 

(Be) 

I said that's all I ever can be 

I said that's all I ever can be 

I said that's all I ever can be 

...
