[Intro]
C G Am F 2x
[Verse]
C
Fall back, take a look at me and you'll see
G
I'm for real, I'll feel what only
Am
I can feel and if that don't appeal to ya
Let me know, and I'll go,
F
cause I flow better when my colours show
[Verse]
C
And that's the way it has to be, honestly
G
Cause creativity could never bloom in my room,
Am
I'd throw it all away before I lie
So don't call me with the compromise,
F
hang up the phone, I got a backbone
C
Stronger than yours
[Pre-Chorus]
La la la la la la
G
La la la la la la
Am
La la la la la la
F~
Yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[Chorus]
C G
If you're trying to turn me into someone else
Am
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
F
I'm not nobody's fool
C G
If you're trying to turn me into something else
Am
I've seen it enough that I'm over that
F
I'm not nobody's fool
C G
If you want to bring me down
Am F~
Go ahead and try, go ahead and try
[Verse]
C
You don't know you think you know me like yourself
G Am
But I fear that you're only telling me what I wanna hear
But do you give a damn,
F
understand that I can't not be what I am
[Verse]
C
I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon
G
It's not as simple here we go not so soon,
Am
I might have fallen for that
F
When I was 14 and a little more green
C
But it's amazing what a couple of years can mean
[Pre-Chorus]
La la la la la la
G
La la la la la la
Am
La la la la la la
F~
Yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[Chorus]
C G
If you're trying to turn me into someone else
Am
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
F
I'm not nobody's fool

If you're trying to turn me into something else
Am
I've seen it enough that I'm over that
F
I'm not nobody's fool
C G
If you want to bring me down
Am F~
Go ahead and try, go ahead and try
[Bridge]
C G
Ohhhhhh
Am
Go ahead and try, try to look me in the eye
F
But you'll never see inside, until you realize
C
Things are trying to settle down
G
Just trying to figure out
Am
Exactly what I'm about
F
If it's with or without you, I don't need your doubt in me
[Chorus]
C G
If you're trying to turn me into someone else
Am
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
F
I'm not nobody's fool
[Chorus]

Go ahead and try, try
[Outro]
C G Am F
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, ohhhhh
C G
But you'll be laughing out loud, if I played to my own crowd
Am F C~
Try
