Lyrics You Gotta' Be Just Who You Are - Butch Walker

You Gotta' Be Just Who You Are

Welcome to life boy
I’m glad you’re here
One day we’ll sit down
Over a beer
I’ll tell you stories
Of who I was
Hope you won’t hate me
Like my daddy does
I’ll teach you tough love
I’ll teach you pride
We’ll keep things upfront
And never hide
I will remind you
Embrace the unknown
Form your opinions
And make them your own
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' be just who you are
Don’t let them sway you
No one can change you
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' look right through your heart
Cause it will guide you
To what’s inside you
I know you’re different
I’ve seen the signs
But please don’t think I’m bummed at all
My heart is blind
If your new boyfriend
Is good to you
That’s more than I can say for my folks
That ended poorly too
You’ll teach ME tough love
You’ll teach ME pride
We’ll keep things upfront
And never hide
You will remind me
Embrace the unknown
Form your opinions
Make them your own
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' be just who you are
Don’t let them sway you
No one can change you
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' look right through your heart
Cause it will guide you
To what’s inside you
Welcome to life boy
I’m glad you’re here
I’m glad we sat down
And had that beer
You’ll tell your stories
As an old man does
And hope you loved me
For who I was
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' be just who you are
Don’t let them sway you
No one can change you
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' look right through your heart
Cause it will guide you
To what’s inside you
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' be just who you are
Don’t let them sway you
No one can change you
You gotta' be just who you are
You gotta' look right through your heart
Cause it will guide you
To what’s inside you
