Lyrics

Thomas: I can only be me

There's nothing else I can possibly be

And now I'm happy

I am who I am

I'll be the best me that I can

Ashima: You don't need to be faster, bigger, stronger

You don't need more than six small wheels

Thomas: I don't need to be taller or be longer

Being me now has its own appeal

All: Be who you are and go far, go far

Be who you are, and go far

Be who you are, and go fast, go far

Be who you are, and go far

We don't need to be faster, bigger, stronger

We don't need more than six small wheels

We don't need to be taller or be longer

Being me now has its own appeal

Be who you are and go far, go far

Be who you are, and go far

Be who you are, and go fast, go far

Be who you are, and go fa-a-ar!
