I will be myself

Mister Showman, what do you want, hiding behind your magic-wand?
Said you seen whoever you may see, no matter how young they might be
Dressed with your cape of fake dreams, you always hum the same themes
Your world is just fantasy, I'll never sing your melody
 
I will not let you burn my wings, I wanna be true to my dreams
I don't need your help
If fortune should rain down on me, no matter how grand it may be
I will be myself
 
Taking checks with greedy hands, giving birth to one night bands
Using them for publicity, tempting them with fame and money
You can charm me with your beam, I know the ending of your film
I will not play a comedy, I wanna write my own story
 
I will not let you burn my wings, I wanna be true to my dreams
I don't need your help
If fortune should rain down on me, no matter how grand it may be
I will be myself
 
I will not let you burn my wings, I wanna be true to my dreams
I don't need your help, don't need your help
If fortune should rain down on me, no matter how grand it may be
I will be myself, be myself
 
If fortune should rain down on me, no matter how grand it may be
I will be myself
