Well I am, what I am, what I am, could be who you are? Is your pain, when you smile 'cause you built a wall around your heart? Do the thoughts in your head keep you up 'cause you feel alone? And are you strong enough to be yourself? My papa used to say You're just a loser And you're never gonna have what it takes Mama used to say All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere Na naa, you gotta be yourself Na naa, you gotta be yourself If you cried, would you hide? Would you want all the world to know? And if you believe in love, would you let it show? Are you in, are you hip, are you cool? Do you try too hard? Or are you strong enough to be yourself? Wait My papa used to say You're just a loser And you're never gonna have what it takes Mama used to say All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere My papa used to say You're just a loser And you're never gonna have what it takes Mama used to say All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere Na naa, you gotta be yourself Na naa, you gotta be yourself If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, what are you living for? If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, you're gonna lose it all If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, what are you living for? You're gonna find someday, you gotta run away You gotta run, run, run, run away My papa used to say You're just a loser And you're never gonna have what it takes Mama used to say All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere Na naa, you gotta be yourself Na naa, you gotta be yourself Na naa, you gotta be yourself Na naa, you gotta be yourself
