Story behind the song
I had to get that three-not piano riff out of my head and into MIDI as quickly as possible. I found the spoken sample on Freesound. It's by Jaume Ferrete and can be found here: http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/samplesViewSingle.php?id=34529 All other samples from Reason's library except one loop from Ableton.
Lyrics
I do not know who I am, but I desperately want self-definition. I'm trying to get us to abandon that terminology. I'm saying something inconsistent. I am who I say I am. I am an employer. I'm not there. I do not sleep. I'm speaking to a microphone, broadcasting my despair - but I hear no response. I'm sorry I was not here to hear your whole testimony. I am listening now. I am not sophisticated, but simple, concentrated and friendly. I am not well-trained in smile, but always curious and want to help others. I am a little bit afraid that it might sound noisy to you. I am never afraid of facing challenges and difficulties. I am the person that I am because of my birth culture. I like who I am. I am not likely to be impressed by the same thing over and over again. I am acting, just like a man. I am not sick, I don't need help. I am sorry for every time I made you cry. I am a visitor.
