Here in America 

they say that we are free 

entitled to opinions 

but we're judged for what they might be 

we can't live in 

a place without any change 

and I wish 

today would be different 

but I knew it'd end up the same. 


Oh I don't wanna be 

I don't wanna be 

whatever description that you labeled me 

and nobody cares at all 

my failures your pleasure 

it never gets better 


I can't accept your words 

and I won't let them touch my pride 

we're simple in our complexion 

then we're labeled and just tossed aside 

nothing to say 

there's nothing I can say 

to make things better 

I wish that today would be different 

I should have known better


Oh I don't wanna be 

I don't wanna be 

whatever description that you labeled me 

and nobody cares at all 

my failures your pleasure 

it never gets better


Oh I don't wanna be 

I don't wanna be 

whatever description that you labeled me 

and nobody cares at all 

my failures your pleasure 

it never gets better

never gets better

never gets better
