Sammy Davis Jr. - I´ve Gotta Be Me lyrics

Whether I am right or whether I am wrong
Whether I find a place in this world or never belong
I´ve got to be me, I have have got to be me
What else can I be but what I´m

I wanna live, not merely survive
And I would not give up this dream
Of life that keeps me alive
I´ve got to be me, I´ve got to be me
The dream that I see makes me what I´m

That far-away prize, a world of success
Is waiting for me if I heed the call
I would not settle down, won´t settle for less
As long as theres a chance that I can have it all

I will go it alone, that is how it must be
I cannot be right for somebody else
If I am not right for me
I´ve got to be free, I have have got to be free
Daring to try, to do it or die
I have have got to be me

I will go it alone, that is how it must be
I cannot be right for somebody else
If I am not right for me
I´ve got to be free, I just have got to be free
Daring to try, to do it or die
I´ve got to be me
