Fall back
  Take a look at me
  And you'll see I'm for real
  I feel what only I can feel
  And if that don't appeal to you
  Let me know
  And I'll go
  'Cuz I flow
  Better when my colors show
  And that's the way it has to be
  Honestly
  'Cuz creativity could never bloom
  In my room
  I'd throw it all away before I lie
  So don't call me with a compromise
  Hang up the phone
  I've got a backbone stronger than yours
  La la la la la la
  La la la la la la la
  La la la la la la
    [chorus]
  If you're trying to turn me into someone else
  Its easy to see I'm not down with that
  I'm not nobody's fool
  If you're trying to turn me into something else
  I've seen enough and I'm over that
  I'm not nobody's fool
  If you wanna bring me down
  Go ahead and try
  Go ahead and try
    You don't know
  You think you know me like yourself
  But I fear
  That you're only telling me what I wanna hear
  But do you give a damn
  Understand
  That I can't not be what I am
  I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon
  Its not a simple hearing but not so soon
  I might've fallen for that when I was fourteen
  And a little more green
  But its amazing what a couple of years can mean
  La la la la la la
  La la la la la la la
  La la la la la la
    [chorus]
    Go ahead and try
  Try and look me in the eye
  But you'll never see inside
  Until you realize, realize
  Things are trying to settle down
  Just try to figure out
  Exactly what I'm about
  If its with or without you
  I don't need you doubting me
    [chorus]
    La la la la la la
  La la la la la la la
  La la la la la la
    Would you be laughing out loud
  If I played to my own crowd
  Try
