Woke up To the promise of gold Chasing a dream Going for broke Came back To a head full of ghosts They came out of the shadows And they followed me home
(Hey) No matter where I go No matter what I do People are bringing me down I gotta shake 'em loose
Gotta shape up (hey) I gotta be free I wanna be up But I wanna be me I don't care if I'm hated I don't care if I'm not I'm goin' make it No, I ain't gonna stop
Oh no, I did it again I got no one to blame it on I'm losing my head
(Hey) No matter where I go No matter what I do People are bringing me down I gotta shake 'em loose So, baby let me be And, you be you
Gotta shape up (hey) I gotta be free I wanna be up But, I wanna be me I don't care if I'm hated I don't care if I'm not I'm goin' make it No, I ain't gonna stop
I gotta shape up I gotta be free I wanna be up But, I wanna be me I don't care if I'm hated I don't care if I'm not I'm goin' make it And no, I ain't gonna stop
No, I ain't gonna stop
No matter where I'd go No matter what I'll do I'm gonna be myself I'm gonna see it through No matter where I'd go No matter what I'll do I'm gonna be myself I'm gonna see it through No matter where I'd go No matter what I'll do I'm gonna be myself I'm wanna see it through I wanna see it through
Gotta shape up (hey) I gotta be free I wanna be up But I wanna be me I don't care if I'm hated I don't care if I'm not (yeah) I'm goin' make it No, I ain't gonna stop
I gotta shape up (hey) I gotta be free I wanna be up But I wanna be me I don't care if I'm hated I don't care if I'm not I'm goin' make it No, I ain't gonna stop
