All my life, people have told me who I was
They can't know
They don't understand
Too many people want to tell me what I should be
They have no idea who I am
But I can feel it
There's a fire raging
The truth is hidden deep within me
I'm tired of lying, I don't want to stay wise anymore
And now, I have to go

This is where I need to be
There's no other way
Every time I turn my head
I can't do anything about it
This is where I can feel free
When the music takes me away
When it sets me free
You have to believe me

Is it a crime to be what I've decided?
I need space to exist
When I get on stage, anything is possible
I lose myself in the sound and it's magical
Push forward
What a release
There are no limits when inspiration comes
And there's no place where I feel more alive
When I start to sing, you can't deny it

This is where I need to be
There's no other way
Every time I turn my head
I can't do anything about it
This is where I can feel free
When the music takes me away
When it sets me free
You have to believe me

When everyone else is gone
I'll stay here alone
You have to understand
This is who I am
This is where I shine
This is where I shine, yeah

This is where I need to be
There's no other way
Every time I turn my head
I can't do anything about it
This is where I can feel free
When the music takes me away
When it sets me free
You have to believe me
