俺にでも　+　なれる meaning

From this song

There's a sentence:

> 君のためなら 俺にでもなれる Billionaire

The translation is "If it’s for you, even I could become a billionaire"

でも here, I understand that it means even/or such thing like this. But I
actually don't understand 俺に(でも)なれる billionaire. I saw the translation and I
think it means the same thing as "俺が慣れる/俺でもなれる"

Could anyone explain this?




The translation in the link is correct at least for this sentence (I have not
checked the other lines). This なれる is not (～に)慣れる ("to get used to ～") but the
potential form of (～に)なる ("to become ～").

> 君のためなら 俺 **に** でもなれる Billionaire

This line basically means the same thing as:

> 君のためなら、俺でもビリオネアになれる。  
>  If it's for you, even I can be a billionaire.

You have to understand two grammar points here. First, "billionaire" has been
pulled out for emphasis. This is an extremely common rhetoric device known as
体言止め.

  * [Nuance when the subject is moved to the end of the phrase](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/61196/5010)
  * [what exactly is "体言止{たいげんど}め"?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/14524/5010)

Second, you can use に to mark the subject of a potential verb, provided the
potential verb does not already have a に-marked term.

  * [Use of に in 「私には本物の若殿様がわかります」](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/24955/5010)
  * [Why say "〜、皆には出来る。" instead of " 〜、皆は出来る。" in this context?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/36481/5010)
  * [How to denote the object and the subject of potential form verbs clearly?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/40586/5010)

ビリオネアになれる ("can become a billionaire") already has に, so 俺にビリオネアになれる sounds
unnatural (you usually have to say 俺はビリオネアになれる instead). However, its 体言止め
version, 俺になれるビリオネア, sounds acceptable because there is no longer に after
ビリオネア. Add でも after 俺に, and you get the original line.
