Step up, step up, step up
Step up, step up, step up
Step up, step up, step up


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
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[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
And 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 here if I'm not so soon
I might've fallen for that
when I was fourteen in a little more dream
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
Yeah, yeah

[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
And if you wanna bring me down
Go ahead and try
Go ahead and try

Go ahead and try
Try to 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 doubtin' me

[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
And if you wanna bring me down
Go ahead and try
Try

La la la la la la (yeah, yeah)
La la la la la la la (yeah, yeah)
La la la la la la (oh)
La la la la la la (would you be laughing out loud)
La la la la la la la (if I played to my own crowd)
La la la la la la (try)
