Let Me Be – The Turtles lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

Please, don’t mistake me or try to make me
The shadow of anybody else
I ain’t the him or who you think I am
I’m just trying hard to be myself

Oh, society’s goal is to be part of the whole
That may sound good to you, not to me

Let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That’s all I ask of you
I am what I am and that’s all I ever can be

Don’t try to plan me or understand me
I can’t stand to be understood
I could never give in to or ever live up to
Being like you think I should

I’ve got some inner need which I’m tryin’ to heed
I can’t take hand-me-down destiny

Let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That’s all I ask of you
I am what I am and that’s all I ever can be

Don’t try to change me or rearrange me
To satisfy the selfishness in you
I’m not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day
And I’m not a pawn to be told how to move

I’m sorry, I’m not the fool you thought would play by your rules
But to each his own philosophy

Let me be, let me be
To think like I want to
Let me be, let me be
That’s all I ask of you
I am what I am and that’s all I ever can be

I said that’s all I ever can be
I said that’s all I ever can be
I said that’s all I ever can be
I said that’s all I…
