You can do anything you want. You don't believe me. You think, she's out of her head. Yeah, I'm out of my head- on being me. What are you on? On being them. You don't even know. I bet you were never given a chance to know...Listen. You can be anything you want to be. Be careful. It's a spell. It's magic. Listen to the words.. You are anything..everyone, anyone..You listen to them, teachers, parents, politicians. They're always saying, if you steal you're a thief, if you sleep aroung you're a slut, if you take drugs you're a junkie. They want to get inside your head and control you with their fear..Don't play their game. Nothing can touch you; you stay beautiful. . Melvin Burgess
About This Quote

Nothing can touch you. You stay beautiful. What is this? “Don’t play their game. Nothing can touch you; you stay beautiful.” This song is about how we can be anything we want and that we don’t need to be controlled by society’s rules and values by listening to the people who tell us what we should do and not do. We can follow our own hearts and make our own decisions without anyone else’s opinions.
