Gavin DeGraw - I Don't Wanna Be lyrics

rate me

I don't need to be anything other than a prison guard's son

I don't need to be anything other than a specialist's science

I don't have to be anyone other than a birth of two souls in one

Part of where I'm going is knowing where I'm coming from</p>

<p>I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately

All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind

I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I gotta do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't want to be anything other than me</p>

<p>I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn

I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn

I'm surrounded by a deadly crisis everywhere I turn

Am I the only one to notice?

I can't be the only one who's learned</p>

<p>I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately

All I have to do is think about me and I have peace of mind

I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I gotta do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't want to be anything other than me</p>

<p>Can I have everyone's attention please

See, not like this and that

You're gonna have to leave

I came from the mountain, the crust of creation

My whole situation made from clay, dust, stone

And now I'm telling everybody</p>

<p>I don't want to be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately

All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind

I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I'm trying to do

Or who I'm supposed to be

I don't want to be anything other than me

I don't want to be

I don't want to be

I don't want to be

I don't want to be</p>

<p>
