[Verse 1]
Well I am, what I am, what I am, could be who you are?
Is your pain, when you smile 'cause you built a wall around your heart?
Do the thoughts in your head keep you up 'cause you feel alone?
And are you strong enough to be yourself?

[Pre-Hook]
My papa used to say
You're just a loser
And you're never gonna have what it takes
Mama used to say
All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere

[Hook]
Na naa, you gotta be yourself
Na naa, you gotta be yourself

[Verse 2]
If you cried, would you hide?
Would you want all the world to know?
And if you believe in love, would you let it show?
Are you in, are you hip, are you cool?
Do you try too hard?
Or are you strong enough to be yourself?
Wait

[Pre-Hook]
My papa used to say
You're just a loser
And you're never gonna have what it takes
Mama used to say
All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere
My papa used to say
You're just a loser
And you're never gonna have what it takes
Mama used to say
All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere

[Hook]
Na naa, you gotta be yourself
Na naa, you gotta be yourself

[Bridge]
If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, what are you living for?
If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, you're gonna lose it all
If you can't, can't oh, be yourself, what are you living for?
You're gonna find someday, you gotta run away
You gotta run, run, run, run away

[Pre-Hook]
My papa used to say
You're just a loser
And you're never gonna have what it takes
Mama used to say
All that loud music you play ain't gonna get you nowhere

[Hook]
Na naa, you gotta be yourself
Na naa, you gotta be yourself
Na naa, you gotta be yourself
Na naa, you gotta be yourself

Enrique Iglesias

Regarded as the “King of Latin Pop”, Enrique Iglesias is a bilingual singer, songwriter, actor, and music producer. He was born in Madrid, Spain with two older siblings and a father who was also a popular musician, Julio Iglesias. Enrique started his career in 1995 on a Spanish American record label– Fonovisa Records. Around five years after his start Enrique had made a successful crossover into American mainstream music and signed a $68 million dollar contract with Universal Music Latin Entertainment for Spanish music releases and Interscope Records for English music releases. Connecting strongly with both music markets, Enrique was something beyond what the average artist could offer at the time. After making many of his greatest hits with these two labels, in 2015 Iglesias signed with Sony Music. As of 2017 Iglesias has over 150 number one hits across all of the Billboard charts and has sold over 159 million records— making him one of the best selling Spanish artists of all time.
