Letra The Need To Be - Gladys Knight
To fulfil the need to be who I am in this world
Is all I ask
I can?t pretend to be something that I?m not
And I won?t wear a mask
Ooh, you touch my face with love in your eyes
But will you touch my heart
With the understanding that it takes to realise
I just can?t play a part
Oh, a fantasy to be true to myself
And make no mistakes
I don?t want to need to hold someone else
No matter what it takes
So if you?re sure it?s love
Just be sure it?s love
For this thing called me
For I am what I am
And I have the need to be
I?m not fool enough
To ever think that I could be the master of my fate
But it?s up to me to choose my roads in life
Though rocky they may be, the ones I take
Oh, the ones I take
There?s a need to be something more
Than just a reflection of a man
I can?t survive in someone?s shadow
I need my very own little spot to stand
Hey, if you?re sure it?s love
Just be sure it?s love
For me and only me
Cos I am what I am
And I have the need to be
Oh, just be sure it?s love
Be real sure it?s love
For me, for little old me
Cos I am what I am
I am what I am
And I have the need to be
