About the song
KMP's music is inspiring, so I wrote him an email asking to collaborate. He sent this track on CD, and I recorded the vocals in my basement. People compare it to either Gregorian chant, which is nice because I like the fact that I sound like a nun (seriously), but they also say it puts them in a "romantic" mood, if you know what I mean.
Lyrics
Be Who You Are by KMP/Queenie
In a world of anger warped by all the faces on TV
All the perfect strangers missing their identities
Forever running with our cell phones ringing, great bombast
Will we ever find the time to solve the strife that holds the past
World of the future; any turn I take could lead me wrong
In this cruel world I look to you to keep me strong
I was so lonely trapped inside a cage I could not see
Until the day you came into my life to set me free
In a world of stars it seems that every day shines not as bright
But you're more beautiful in the true light (in love's true light)
In your arms let me find a shelter away from the storm
In your heart is the fire that lights the way and keeps me warm
Extra vocal parts:
Be who you are, not who the world expects you to be
I am, I am, only what I am
In a world of anger warped by all the faces on TV
All the perfect strangers missing their identities
Forever running with our cell phones ringing, great bombast
Will we ever find the time to solve the strife that holds the past
World of the future; any turn I take could lead me wrong
In this cruel world I look to you to keep me strong
I was so lonely trapped inside a cage I could not see
Until the day you came into my life to set me free
In a world of stars it seems that every day shines not as bright
But you're more beautiful in the true light (in love's true light)
In your arms let me find a shelter away from the storm
In your heart is the fire that lights the way and keeps me warm
Extra vocal parts:
Be who you are, not who the world expects you to be
I am, I am, only what I am
