The sun now sets on another day
Nothin' seems to go my way
But I'm not gonna change a single thing
'Cause I'm gonna live life longer
Sing a little louder
Dance like no one's watching me
'Cause I'm gonna be the one and only me
Drive down the high way
Turn on the radio
And sing along
It's so much fun to be free
To just be me
'Cause I'm gonna live life longer
Sing a little louder
Dance like no one's watching me
'Cause I'm gonna be the one and only me
Party all night
Sleep in all day
Do whatever I want without getting caught
'Cause I'm gonna live life longer
Sing a little louder
Dance like no one's watching me
'Cause I'm gonna be the one and only me
Oh, yeah
The one and only me

All my life people have seen me only from face value. When I wrote this song it was in hope that people who read or heard it would look deeper into who I really am not what I seem to be.
