They say come with us
And you’ll be free
But I just wanna be me
They say join and the team
And you can see
But I prefer to stay me

If there’s a stairway to Heaven
I would stay right here alone
Staying true and the world stops turning
Staying true and my heart stops burning

'Cause I will rise and shine where you can never go
I'll be the king divine that you will never know
Yes, I will rise and shine where you can never go
I will rule my world, crush your dreams
Don't need your sympathy, I just wanna be me

They make empty promises
But this shit ain't real
I just wanna be free
I have neither been lucky
Nor the chosen one
But I like to be me

If there's a shortcut to happiness
I still take the ferry to Hell
Staying true until the world stops turning
Staying true until the heart stops burning

'Cause I will rise and shine where you can never go
I'll be the king divine that you will never know
Yes, I will rise and shine where you can never go
I will rule my world, crush your dreams
Don't need your sympathy, I just wanna be me

Rise, become immortal
A journey back from the dead
Shine, open the portal
Make them pay and don't you ever regret
Rise, become immortal
A journey back from the dead
Shine, open the portal
And make them pay

'Cause I will rise and shine where you can never go
(Never go)
I'll be the king divine that you will never know
(Never know)
Yes, I will rise and shine where you can never go
(Never go)
I will rule my world, crush your dreams
Don't need your sympathy, I just wanna be me
