Be You

You'll meet a lot of charlatans on your way up But don't you ever be deceived by the fake love It smells so good but reject it from your taste buds 'Cause it'll give you stomach ache when the day comes We all follow advice from all the wrong people My ye is different to your ye, they're unequal And when the act like bosses, you can never trust it Always running their mouth something like a faucet When you see a man talking in percentages Pick your bag, leave the room, he's an impressionist 10% real, 40% fake 10% jealousy, 40% hate But this is how the world is, always testing your loyalty They'll carve your heart out, have a feast and be enjoying it The hardest thing to be in the world is to be real And the easiest thing is to be free You can be anything in this world But it takes strength to be you You can tell a lie a million times It'll never be true What's your identity You got the set of keys, yeah You're standing at the door And when you go in, please let it rather be you You can be anything in this world But it takes strength to be you You can tell a lie a million times It'll never be true What's your identity You got the set of keys, yeah You're standing at the door And when you go in, please let it rather be you Nobody stays forever, they leave at the sign Humans never break mould, we living by design Be different, your destiny's written in the skies All that spirit talk, but that's a heathen in disguise Persuade nobody that you're real Look them in the eyes when you make a deal Your gifts and talents are nothing to be concealed In the middle of the stormy waves, be Still People change and you probably will too Embrace your convictions and do the needful There's nothing more dangerous Than to be complacent Nothing more heart-breaking Than to be forsaken That's the reality, gotta confront your tragedies Can't avoid the catastrophes And the sweat is your salary Don't put your faith in vanity They'll make you lose your sanity You look up to the paraclete To tell you who to rather be You can be anything in this world But it takes strength to be you You can tell a lie a million times It'll never be true What's your identity You got the set of keys, yeah You're standing at the door And when you go in, please let it rather be you You can be anything in this world But it takes strength to be you You can tell a lie a million times It'll never be true What's your identity You got the set of keys, yeah You're standing at the door And when you go in, please let it rather be you And that's it right there Don't let anyone trick you into thinking That you gotta be somebody else God made you who you are And he made you perfect
