Sammy Davis, Jr. - I've Gotta Be Me

Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrongWhether I find a place in this world or never belongI gotta be me, I've gotta be meWhat else can I be but what I amI want to live, not merely surviveAnd I won't give up this dream of life that keeps me aliveI gotta be me, I gotta be meThe dream that I see makes me what I amThat far-away prize, a world of successIs waiting for me if I heed the callI won't settle down, won't settle for lessAs long as there's a chance that I can have it allI'll go it alone, that's how it must beI can't be right for somebody elseIf I'm not right for meI gotta be free, I've gotta be freeDaring to try, to do it or dieI've gotta be meI'll go it alone, that's how it must beI can't be right for somebody elseIf I'm not right for meI gotta be free, I just gotta be freeDaring to try, to do it or dieI gotta be me
