[Verse 1]
I'm far away from home
I see the deep blue sky
Nothing matters, no one cares
We have so many ways to go
But I will always go my way
[Chorus]
There will be tears and cries of pain
I'll show no fear and won't complain
Why can't you stay away from me
I found a key to live my dream
[Post-Chorus]
Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to
Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to
[Verse 2]
You tell me to be someone else
To be what I don't want to be
Respect me, or leave me alone
I am what I am
Nothing matters, no one cares
And to be honest
I don't care
[Chorus]
There will be tears and cries of pain
I'll show no fear and won't complain
Why can't you stay away from me
I found a key to live my dream
[Post-Chorus]
Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to
Don't tell me who I am
I live my life how I want to
