lyrics
[Verse 1]
You look tired of this sleepy town
Like a broken toy in the lost and found
Like a saxophone that wonʼt make a sound
You seem to beat odds with the world
You seem to be confused if you can even move
With those cement shoes and mid-summer blues
It donʼt matter if you win or lose
I got one question for you
[Chorus]
Why donʼt you go?
Leave this town and never look back, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone, just go
You got nothing to lose and everything to gain, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
[Verse 2]
You got dreams in your head way bigger than yourself
You got thoughts on your mind just sitting on the shelf
You sorta kinda remind me of myself
Well, I got one question for you
[Chorus]
Why donʼt you go?
Leave this town and never look back, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone, just go
You got nothing to lose and everything to gain, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
[Bridge]
Donʼt let them tell you that the stars are out of reach
Donʼt let them r in on your parade
Donʼt let the fear of falling stop you
From climbing right up the mountain
[Chorus]
Just go
Leave this town and never look back, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone, just go
You got nothing to lose and everything to gain, cʼmon
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
[Outro]
Oh, be who you wanna be and get gone today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
Today, Today Today, Today Today, Today
Be who you wanna be and get gone today
