The institution don't like me
They don't even know my name
All they do is look at my clothes
And they know I'm not the same
But that's alright
It's alright with me
They don't understand I have the right to be free
CHORUS: Be yourself
Be yourself, everybody
Be yourself, just be who you are
Be yourself
Be yourself, everyone
Be yourself, don't let them push you too far
The conformists try to put you down
They try to curb your ways
They's rather run the corner gun
Now I know to fear the game
And that's alright
It's alright with me
Because there's enough of us to fight to be free
(horns - The Sugar Daddies)
(guitar solo - Gil)
CHORUS
Some people don't realize
The danger in their trends
It only brings on prejudice
And it's hard to Meet New Friends
And that's no good
It's no good at all
It took so long for us to rise, don't let this be our fall
CHORUS
CHORUS
THE END
