Текст песни Artificial - Co Co Jones

I refuse to be artificial
I'm free to be me, yeah (I refuse to be artificial)
It's my identity, oh (I refuse to be artificial)
'Cause I'm no counterfeit, no (I refuse to be artificial)
Down in my soul, I'm original

Love myself 'cause I should ('cause I should)
Be myself 'cause I should
Beautiful and it's good to be me (good to be me)
Just to shorty, I am nodding
I'm grown, it's annoying taking pressure from the critics
Let me be, let me be (let me be)
'Cause I don't like bosses and I can't stand fences
And I don't like dressing to impress the insignificant
People don't know what I have inside (no one knows)
And I won't sell out to be phony and high

Aye (I refuse to be artificial)
Just let me be me, oh, oh (I refuse to be artificial)
This is my identity, aye (I refuse to be artificial)
'Cause I'm no counterfeit, no (I refuse to be artificial)
Down in my soul, I'm a prisoner

Baby, listen to me (listen to me)
It's always better to be (to be)
Do you, you and no other (other)
You and no other
Individuality is key (is the key)
Hey, only be what God made you to be (made you to be) oh
And you don't need bosses, and you don't need fences
And never dress to impress the insignificant
People don't know (they don't know) what you have inside (have inside)
So don't sell out to be phony and high

(No, no, no, no, no, no, yeah) yeah, yeah, oh (I refuse to be artificial)
I refuse to be what they tryna make me (I refuse to be artificial)
Oh, no bosses, no fences (I refuse to be artificial)
I won't do it no more (I refuse to be artificial) oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Some people think they know me
'Cause they stand close by
But they don't know my heartbeat
Nor what's really inside
When I look in the mirror, it's there I see
How time it is to be me

Some people think they know me
'Cause they stand close by
But they can't feel my heartbeat
Nor what's really inside
When I look in the mirror, it's there I see (I see)
How time it is to be me

(I refuse to be artificial) oh, yeah
Can't let it go down like this (I refuse to be artificial)
I can't be like you (I refuse to be artificial)
No bosses, no fences, no (I refuse to be artificial)
It's my identity (I refuse to be artificial)
'Cause you can't hold me, hold me (I refuse to be artificial)
If you can't hold me, no (you can't hold me)
'Cause you can't hold me down (I refuse to be artificial)
And I'm not gonna take it, oh yeah-yeah (I refuse to be artificial)

It don't matter what you say
I'm gonna do it anyway (I refuse to be artificial)
It don't matter what you do
'Cause I'm just still gonna be me (I refuse to be artificial)
Yeah, yeah-yeah (I refuse to be artificial)
'Cause I refuse to be
I refuse to be artificial
