Choose to Be Me [Remastered Album Version] Lyrics

I was raised by this town
To believe the words they put inside me
They made me hide
Inside their loving arms around me

I turned away
I choose the path that I believe in
I stand today
Above the shady nights me
I fear nothing
But the fact that I'm afraid of everything
I knew my name
Would only be for lonely riding

[Chorus]
Choose to be me
To be free to be my way
I saw the light shining right in my eyes
Choose to be me
To be free to be my way

Inside the night
I write the lonely story of my life
It makes me cry
But I want to know it till last line
I fear nothing
But the fact that I'm afraid of everything
Destiny, blow it away
I'm made for lonely riding

[Chorus]

With a smile on
With a smile

Hey
Every day my sun keeps rising
Giving me the strength that I need
All the faith I need for only you and I

Happiness is here with me
It's made for all the days I see
Happiness is holding me around and round and round and round and round

[Chorus]

With a smile on
With a smile

[Chorus]

With a smile on
With a smile on

Fight 'Til Dying

I was raised by this town 
To believe the words they put inside me 
They made me hide 
Inside their loving arms around me

I turned away 
I choose the path that I believe in 
I stand today 
Above the shady nights me 
I fear nothing 
But the fact that I'm afraid of everything 
I knew my name 
Would only be for lonely riding

[Chorus]
Choose to be me 
To be free to be my way 
I saw the light shining right in my eyes 
Choose to be me 
To be free to be my way

Inside the night 
I write the lonely story of my life 
It makes me cry 
But I want to know it till last line 
I fear nothing 
But the fact that I'm afraid of everything 
Destiny, blow it away 
I'm made for lonely riding

[Chorus]

With a smile on 
With a smile

Hey
Every day my sun keeps rising 
Giving me the strength that I need 
All the faith I need for only you and I

Happiness is here with me 
It's made for all the days I see 
Happiness is holding me around and round and round and round and round

[Chorus]

With a smile on
With a smile

[Chorus]

With a smile on
With a smile on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
