I Can Only Be Me

Butterflies begin
From having been a larva
As a child is born
From being in a mother's wombBut how many times
Have you wished you were some other
Someone than who you areYet who's to say that if all were uncovered
You will like what you see
You can only be you
As I can only be meFlowers can not bloom
Until it is their season
As we would not be here
Unless it was our destinyBut how many times
Have you wished to be in spaces
Times, places than what you wereYet who's to say with unfamiliar faces
You could any more be
Loving you that you'd see
You can only be you as I can only be meI can only be me
