We see punks draped in chains,
And preps dressed in GAP You can free yourself From this horrible trap You don't have to listen To the rumours and hype Or let others brand you With a stereotype You don't need the clothes, Or the shoes, or the car Just believe in yourself, and be who you are You can try hard in school Without being a geek, 'Cause there's way more to life Than the popular clique Joining the band doesn't make you uncool It's those who say otherwise who are the fools. Join a team, or a club, or try out for the play Don't wait any longer, go for it today!!! You don't have to be great, just get out there and start And whatever you do, let it come from the heart Be it music, or writing, or drama, or sports, Don't let anyone else make you think you fall short Oh the things you can do, If you be who you are, Just be true to yourself, and you will go far Oh the people you'll meet Of all different kinds Just forget about labels And open your mind Oh the things you will learn And the worlds you will see If you say to yourself: "I'm glad to be me!!"
