When I was born my mother was torn crazy, They nearly gave me away to the wrong lady |
| [00:40.232] |
Doctor said 'sorry we didn't see that comin but there's no way in the world that he came from a bla |
| [00:44.617] |
ck woman' |
| [00:46.302] |
I guess I been fightin since birth |
| [00:48.767] |
I barely had life on this earth |
| [00:51.094] |
Already subjected to people and how they judge, Little fair skinned baby, resen**ent was in my bloo |

I would love to say things got easier I as I grew, But conflict in my family was nothing new |
| [00:59.262] |
My parents in the kitchen, they're *****in at one another, My brother's my role model so playing wo |
| [01:05.808] |
men was cool |
| [01:06.694] |
Cool until you start mature, start to endure what is real life and finally admit when insecure |
| [01:12.025] |
Pure honesty, promise me if you can, that you'll be there to catch me when I land, for who I am |
| [01:17.292][Chorus: Locksmith] |
|
| [01:21.390] |
It's who I am |
| [01:25.310] |
Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am |
| [01:29.398] |
Need you to understand, everything I'm not made me everything I am, and if we really fam, you'll be |
| [01:34.197] |
there to catch me when I land, for who I am |
| [01:39.102][Verse 2: Locksmith] |
|
| [01:39.438] |
Who I am is deeper than what they giving you, But second guessing myself was my biggest issue |
| [01:44.309] |
For example at the B.E.T. office had an awkward conversation with one of my fellow artist |
| [01:49.373] |
He said 'I used to rap just like you, but that was going nowhere so to help my own career had to sw |
| [01:53.670] |
itch it up' |
| [01:55.633] |
Stressing he's one of my known peers, Then I realized he was projecting his own fears |
| [01:59.660] |
Fear I had the courage of what he urges to be, So instead of showing love he'd rather discourage me |
| [02:05.461] |
And that's how people feel when they deal with uncertainty, And certainly would place the burden on |
| [02:09.698] |
any person but he |
| [02:10.830] |
And see it plain but can't explain the direction |
| [02:13.885] |
You can break the mirror but can't change the reflection |
| [02:16.125] |
Without an aim it all remains a question |
| [02:18.670] |
Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am? |
| [02:21.308][Chorus: Locksmith] |
|
| [02:25.654] |
It's who I am |
| [02:27.902] |
Will you be there to catch me when I land, for who I am |
| [02:33.344] |
Need you to understand, everything I'm not made me everything I am, and if we really fam, you'll be |
| [02:38.813] |
there to catch me when I land, for who I am |
| [02:43.750][Alt. Chorus: Rebecca Nobel] |

Who I, Who I, Who I, Who I (Repeat 4x) |
