Hey, you. What's the matter? Lately you've been looking down. Is that someone in the mirror? The reason you don't come around? (That's crazy). This isn't the you I know. (Feeling unpretty). Putting on a show. (You don't wanna be a wanna be). So who you really gonna be? Only you can be you. Only I can be me. You always wanna be what you're not. Can't you be happy with what you've got? You're perfect the way you are with your insecurities, doubts and scars. Life's to short to worry. Don't you know it's true. Only you can be you. (You can be you). Only I can be me. (I can be me). Only you can be you. (You can be me). Only I can be me. (I can be me).
You think you ain't got swagger. Gotta be cooler than you are. I think, whatever. Let them know that you're a star. (Be crazy). Be who you wanna be. (No maybes). You're a celebrity. (You don't wanna be a wanna be). Show them who you're gonna be. Only you can be you. Only I can be me. You always wanna be what you're not. Can't you be happy with what you've got? You're perfect the way you are with your insecurities, doubts and scars. Life's too short to worry. Don't you know it's true? Only you can be you. Only I can be me. Only you can be you. Only I can be me.
*rap*
If you love who you are, put your hands up. You feeling good 'bout yourself, then stand up. You independent and your strong, throw your hands up. You feeling fabulous? Put your hands up. You can be you. I can be me. You a star if you ain't TV. You tall, you short, you different, you cute, you light, you dark. You beautiful.
*singing*
Only you can be you. Only I can be me. You always wanna be what you're not. Can't you be happy with what you've got? You're perfect the way you are with your insecurities, doubts and scars. Life's too short to worry. Don't you know it's true? Only you can be you. Only I can be me. Only you can be you. Only I can be me. Only you can be you. Only I can be me. Only you can be you. Only I can be me.
