I'm not anyone
No, not just anyone
I have the right to lead
A life fulfilled with every need
I'm not any man
Designed to fit someone's plan
I have my own desires
All the things a man aspires
No, I'll not be used
Misled, deceived, or abused
No, sir, not me
I'm free
I'll not give away
The freedom I have is to say
To say "I do"... "I don't"
"I will"... "I won't"
Know thyself
These words are true
Know thyself
I hope I do
Toiled a while
But not in vain
I removed the child
The man remained
Life's filled with those who fail
The weak, the wrong, the meek, the frail
Those who just refuse to try
Those who just live to die
I'm not I'm not one of those
I'm full of pride, I suppose
I'll say it loud:
I am proud!
I'll not be a space
A no one, a number, a face
No, sir, not me
I am free!
I'll lay my life on the line
This freedom I've got is all mine
No, sir, not me not me
You see, I'm free!
No, and I'll not be used
Misled, deceived, or abused
No, sir, not me
Not me!
La la la la la la
La la la la la la...
