I remember when I was afraid to really speak my mind so many times
I would pretend everything was working out just fine
Though it hurt inside
But you're the gentle voice that healed me
The reflection of my soul and I can't hide

Who I am, you always loved me just for
Who I am, and you were always there to
Understand, and when I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud of who I am

I was alone, I always felt so out here on my own
Never at home
With myself, or for that matter anybody else
I didn't know
That you would be the inspiration you're the one
Who helped me find out

Who I am, you always loved me just for
Who I am, and you were always there to
Understand oh when I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud
You're the reason the one
Who was there for me
In my darkest hour
You taught me to believe

In who I am, you always loved me just for
Who I am, you were always there to understand, when I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud of who I am
Of who I am
