Be What You Want
Total Chaos Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People want a solution


This ain't no revolution
But maybe there ain't one to give

It's being what you want to be
That I've got something to say
I've just come to the notion



Stand up and give your cry
Be what you wanna be


Do what you wanna do

Say what you wanna say

Be what you wanna be






It don't matter what they say
