Free To Be Me
A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know I've got my pride
You know it runs in the family
And you can not hide
I'll save the world from chaos
And you know it's true
I'm gonna save you too

All the others can try
But they can't even think about it
And I can not lie
I'll bring the endless fire
And you know it's true
You're gonna feel it too
And you know it's true
You're gonna feel it too

They said I had to be you but I know I can only be me
I'll turn impossible to possible go ahead and watch me
I'm not what you think cause I've got to be me
That's right I'm Free
I'm free to be me

Get out of my way
I have a lasting legacy
It's time that you paid
For all the pain and sorrow
And you know it's true
You're gonna feel it too
And you know it's true
You're gonna feel it too

They said I had to be you but I know I can only be me
I'll turn impossible to possible go ahead and watch me
I'm not what you think cause I've got to be me
That's right I'm Free
I'm free to be me

I'm free to be me

They said I had to be you but I know I can only be me
I'll turn impossible to possible go ahead and watch me
I'm not what you think cause I've got to be me
That's right I'm Free
I'm free to be me

I'm free to be me
They said I had to be you but I know I can only be me
I'll turn impossible to possible go ahead and watch me
I'm not what you think cause I've got to be me
That's right I'm Free
I'm free to be me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Free To Be Me" by A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT center around themes of self-identity, self-empowerment, and individualism. The repeated assertion of personal pride underscores a strong recognition of one's heritage, suggesting that the artist derives strength and confidence from their family lineage. This pride is coupled with a sense of responsibility; the singer feels a compelling urge to confront chaos and offer salvation not only to themselves but to others as well. This dual purpose creates a passionate drive to harness their inner strength to affect change in the world. The insistence that "you know it's true" speaks to the singer's conviction about their own capabilities and influences, signifying a profound belief in their power to make a difference.


The juxtaposition of individual capability against societal expectations is a central motif of the song. The singer acknowledges that many may attempt to replicate their approach or achieve similar heights, yet they assert that these efforts often lack the depth of genuine thought or understanding. As the phrase "I'll bring the endless fire" suggests, the singer is committed to igniting passion and enthusiasm in their endeavors, illuminating the way for both themselves and those around them. The repetition of "you're gonna feel it too" emphasizes an energetic connection with others, inspiring them to recognize and share in this transformative energy. This notion of infectious inspiration highlights the artist's desire to communicate their experience, suggesting that true empowerment can resonate deeply with others.


A pivotal moment arises when the singer confronts external expectations and societal pressures. The line "They said I had to be you" signals a confrontation with coercive ideals that demand conformity. However, the singer’s resolute claim, “but I know I can only be me,” emphasizes their determination to embrace their authentic self. This marks a defining choice to reject imposed identities and assert individuality in a world often marked by the pressure to fit into predefined molds. The assertion that they can "turn impossible to possible" reflects not just ambition, but a deep-seated belief in the potential that comes from authenticity. The phrase serves both as a challenge to doubters and as a declaration that embracing one’s true self can pave the way to achieving remarkable feats.


Through a repeated chorus that attests to their freedom, the singer crafts an anthem of liberation. The idea that they are "free to be me" encapsulates the song's essence—the celebration of personal identity unbound by the constraints of others’ expectations. This refrain acts as a powerful declaration of autonomy and strength, reinforcing the underlying message of self-acceptance and bold individuality. The insistence on being unconfined by external perceptions and the commitment to forging their own path can inspire listeners who may feel similarly constrained. In sum, the song serves not only as a personal narrative of self-discovery but also as a universal invitation for others to embrace their true selves and explore the boundless possibilities that arise from authenticity.
