“This Is Who I am” Lyrics

Some flowers never get to bloom and see the day
Some flowers are content to wish their lives away

Some may rise and some may fall
But only you may ever see me true
So only you can tell that this is who I am
This is who I am

And you know me like a river knows how to flow
My body is the story you were always told

The sun may rise, the sun may fall
But only you may ever see me true
So only you can tell that this is who I am
This is who I am

Send the white horses, seems I’ve exhausted
Those fickle games I play
Seen my good fortune made

For only you may ever see me true
So only you can tell them this is who I am

This is who I am
This is who I am
This is who I am
No lie, I’m no less
This is who I am
This is who I am
Sunrise to sunset
This is who I am
