Feels like you've built a wall around me
You've tried your best to ground me, let me explain
That I don't play by any other rules
I won't be nobody's fool, I won't lose this game

There is no way
I can love you with half of my heart
There's no way
It would tear me apart

I am who I am, what else could I be
And I'll stand where I stand, I chose to be me
When you look in my eyes, you get what you see
Understand if you can that I am who I am, who I am

Think twice before you try to read me
Before you try to lead me into your trap
You've got no right to play with my emotion
'Cause you should know that I'm much deeper than that

There is no way
I can love you with half of my heart
There's no way
It would tear me apart

I am who I am, what else could I be
And I'll stand where I stand, I chose to be me
When you look in my eyes, you get what you see
Understand if you can that I am who I am, who I am

Don't try, no way that you can love me
Think twice before you try to read me
No right, won't let your love escape me

There is no way
I can love you with half of my heart
No way
It would tear me apart

I am who I am, what else could I be
And I'll stand where I stand, I chose to be me
When you look in my eyes, you get what you see
Understand if you can that I am who I am, who I am
I am who I am, what else could I do
And I'll stand where I stand, I chose to be me
When you look in my eyes, you get what you see
Understand if you can that I am who I am, who I am
I am who I am, what else could I be
And I'll stand where I stand, I chose to be me
When you look in my eyes, you get what you see
Understand if you can that I am who I am
