Текст песни I've Gotta be Me - Al Martino

Whether I'm right, or whether I'm wrong
Whether I find a place in this world, or never belong
I've gotta be me, I've gotta be me
What else can I be, but what I am?

I wanna live, not merely survive
And I won't give up, this dream of life
That keeps me alive
I've gotta be me, I've gotta be me
The dream, that I see makes me what I am

That faraway prize, a world of success
It's waiting for me if I heed the call
I won't settle down, or settle for less
As long as there's half a chance that I can have it all

I'll go it alone, that's how it must be
I can't be right for somebody else if I'm not right for me
I've gotta be me, I've gotta be free
Daring to try to do it or die, I've gotta be me

I wanna live, not merely survive
And I won't give up, this dream of life
That keeps me alive
I've gotta be me, I've gotta be me
The dream that I see makes me what I am

That faraway prize, a world of success
It's waiting for me if I heed the call
I won't settle down, or settle for less
As long as there's half a chance that I can have it all

I'll go it alone, that's how it must be
I can't be right for somebody else if I'm not right for me
I've gotta be me, I've gotta be free
Daring to try, to do it, or die
I've gotta be me
