Story behind the song
The first song that I wrote when I decided that I was tired of the acting proffession and was going to get back into music
Lyrics
BEEN LOTS OF PEOPLE WORN A THOUSAND DIFFERENT HATS
‘CAUSE LIFE AINT SIMPLE IT’S NOT ALWAYS WHITE OR BLACK
WE DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO WIN THE DAY BUT
WHAT WILL BE IS GONNA BE THERE ANYWAY
TURN DOWN THE FOOT LIGHTS THE OVERHEAD MARQUEE
I’M STANDING HERE WITH NO DISGUISE
WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE BABY
THIS IS ME COMING FROM THE HEART BABY
THIS IS ME I’M NOT PLAYING A PART BABY
THIS IS ME MAKING A BRAND NEW START BABY
THIS IS ME
BEEN LOTS OF PLACES BEEN AROUND THE WORLD AND BACK
SUNG SO MANY SONGS IN JUST AS MANY BANDS
WHATEVER MUSIC THAT WAS ON THE RADIO HELPED ME
PAY THE BILLS R&B AND ROCK AND ROLL
NO MORE HIDING BEHIND HIT NUMBER THREE
I’M STANDING HERE WITH WHAT I’VE LEARNED
THAT’S WHAT I’M GONNA SING BABY
THIS IS ME COMING FROM THE HEART BABY
THIS IS ME I’M NOT PLAYING A PART BABY
THIS IS ME MAKING A BRAND NEW START BABY
THIS IS ME
GOT NO BIG EXPECTATIONS I’M NOT WAITING FOR A PRIZE
JUST TO SEE THE EARTH ON MY TERMS
AND NOT THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE’S EYES
BEEN LOTS OF FACES HID BEHIND ALL KINDS OF MASKS
I’VE TREADED ALL THE BOARDS FROM ROME TO HACKENSACK
I DID WHATEVER THE SCRIPT SAID I SHOULD DO
SO MANY DIFFERENT ROLES IN THE END I GOT CONFUSED
TURN THE DOWN THE SPOT LIGHTS TO BE OR NOT TO BE
I’M STANDING HERE WITHOUT A CUE AND WITHOUT AN OPENING SPEECH
THIS IS ME COMING FROM THE HEART BABY
THIS IS ME I’M NOT PLAYING A PART BABY
THIS IS ME MAKING A BRAND NEW START BABY
THIS IS ME
