Be Real Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge

4th Street Feeling

2012

[Verse 1]
Why can't you be real?
You hide the way you feel
You can't manufacture me
'Cause I like it naturally

[Verse 2]
Why can't you be true?
Why can't you be you?
Stop all your suffering
And do your natural thing

[Bridge]
Do you think you're fooling anybody?
Your mind is in some kind of control
Your soul isn't inside your body
Your body is inside the soul, yeah

[Verse 3]
Why can't you be cool?
You're acting like a fool
You sold your soul for fame, fame, fame, fame
Me, I like the natural game

[Bridge]
Do you think you're fooling anybody?
You are in some kind of control
I've seen you on the ledge, pushed over the edge
Like it was some kind of goal, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine
Never mind (Never mind, never mind)
Oh, never mind (I will be fine, I will be fine)
Never mind (Never mind, never mind, I will be fine)
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, yeah (I will be, I'm gonna be)
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I'll be fine, I'll be fine (I will be fine)
Never mind, never mind
I will be fine, I will be fine
Never mind, never mind
I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be (I will be fine)
Never mind, never mind
I'll be fine (I will be fine, I will be fine)
Now never mind, never mind
I will be fine
