There’s a place just north of town
Listen you can hear the sound
They’re singing ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Everybody acts the same
Nothing’s different but the names
They’re singing ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Basing themselves off the others
Part of them secretly wonders
What it would be like to finally break away
I can’t be what they want me to be
Equality doesn’t mean that you’re free
I mean can’t you see, you are nothing like me
Conformity doesn’t mean that you’re free
I can’t be what they want me to be
Equality doesn’t mean that I’m free
Why can you not see, you are nothing like me
I, I just want to be free (free), everything I can be
Society is hard to fight
When they decide what’s wrong or right
Singing ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
But you can make a different sound
And turn that small world upside down
They’re singing ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Deep down we secretly wonder
Are we different from all the others
Will we finally find ourselves and break away
I can’t be what they want me to be
Equality doesn’t mean that you’re free
I mean can’t you see, you are nothing like me
Conformity doesn’t mean that you’re free
I can’t be what they want me to be
(Oh you are afraid that you just can’t fit in without it)
Equality doesn’t mean that you’re free
(What’s the point of life if you can’t truly enjoy it)
Why can you not see, you are nothing like me
(You are afraid the world will never fully accept you)
I, I just want to be free (free) everything I can be
(What’s the point of hiding from the life that excites you)

You are afraid that you just can't fit in without it
What's the point of life if you can't truly enjoy it
You are afraid that the world will never fully accept you
(You can make a different sound and turn that small world upside down)
What's the point of hiding from the life that excites you
(You just gotta stand your ground, and fight to turn your life around)
Don't follow their song
Just sing your own
Don't follow their song
When you could write your own
(You can choose who to be)
Don't follow their song
Choose your own
Don't follow their song
You've got your own
Just break away!
I can’t be what they want me to be
Equality doesn’t mean that you’re free
I mean can’t you see, you are nothing like me
Conformity doesn’t mean that you’re free
I can’t be what they want me to be
(Oh you are afraid that you just can’t fit in without it)
Equality doesn’t mean that you’re free
(What’s the point of life if you can’t truly enjoy it)
Why can you not see, you are nothing like me
(You are afraid the world will never fully accept you)
I, I just want to be free (free) everything I can be
(What’s the point of hiding from the life that excites you)
I just wanna be free
