[Verse 1]
I came a long, long way
Just to be where I am
I followed no one down
And I'm not the same
[Verse 2]
I saw the wretched mountain of disbelief
I walked right through it and I know what I need
[Chorus]
I hope you understand
It's alright but I'm gonna be who I am
[Verse 3]
I have a thousand voices inside my head
Someone's always talking and it's driving me mad
So if I wander, if I stray
I can always turn and go the other way
[Chorus]
I hope you understand
It's alright but I'm gonna be who I am
[Bridge]
I learned my truth
At least for now
Doing is the only way I know how
[Chorus]
Oh I hope, I hope you understand
It's alright but I'm gonna be who I am
