Feels like you've built a wall around me
  You've tried your best to ground me
  Let me explain
  That I don't play by any other rules
  I won't be nobody's fool
  I won't lose this game
  There is no way
  I can love you with half of my heart
  (There’s no way)
  It would tear me apart
  
  I am who I am
  What else could I be
  And I'll stand where I stand
  I chose to be me
  When you look in my eyes
  You get what you see
  Understand if you can
  That I am who I am, who I am, oh…
  
  Think twice before you try to read me
  Before you try to lead me into your trap
  You've got no right to play with my emotion
  Cause you should know that I'm much deeper than that
  There is no way
  I can love you with half of my heart
  (There’s no way)
  It would tear me apart
  
  I am who I am
  What else could I be
  And I'll stand where I stand
  I chose to be me
  When you look in my eyes
  You get what you see
  Understand if you can
  That I am who I am, who I am
  
  Oh…no…yeah (don’t try, no way that you can try)
  (Think twice before you try to read me)
  (No right, won’t let you love, miss me)
  
  Oh, there is no way
  I can love you with half of my heart (no way)
  I don’t wanna tear me apart…
  
  I am who I am
  What else could I be
  And I'll stand where I stand (oh, oh)
  I chose to be me
  When you look in my eyes
  (When you look in my eyes)
  You get what you see (get what you see)
  Understand if you can
  That I am who I am, who I am
  (That I am who I am, who I am…)
  
  [No right you do wanna love me]
  What else could I be (what else could I be)
  And I'll stand where I stand (where I stand)
  [Don’t try, no way that you can love me]
  I chose to be me (chose to be me)
  When you look in my eyes
  [Think twice before you try to read me]
  You get what you see
  Understand if you can (understand if you can)
  [No right]
  That I am who I am, who I am
  (That I am who I am, who I am…)
  
  I am who I am
  What else could I be
  And I'll stand where I stand
  I chose to be me (chose to be me)
  When you look in my eyes (eyes)
  You get what you see
  Understand if you can
  That I am who I am, who I am
