When You Are Who You Are

You always go out of your way to impress me

Don't you know by now, ain't no need to impress me

I'm impressed every time you smile

When I feel like you mean to smile

You can be so very beautiful

When you are who you are

Every morning when you wake up you put on a new disguise

How long did you think it would take me to realize?

Girl, the things you wore ain't real

You never tell me just how you feel

Girl you can be so very beautiful

When you are who you are

People never seem to want to be themselves

So they end up running in circles confused

Yeah, confused

Just like everyone else

Every morning when you wake up you put on a new disguise

Just how long did you think it would take me to realize

That the things you wore ain't real

You never tell me just how you feel

When you could be so very beautiful

When you are who you are

Yeah, when you are who you are, yeah

Oh, when you are who you are, yeah

When you are who you are, yeah

When you are who you are

Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it

When you are who you are, yeah

Oh when you are who you are, yeah

Oh when you are who you are, yeah

Oh when you are who you are
