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
Cuz 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 how you feel
Cuz you could 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
Yes 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 were ain’t real
You never tell me just how you feel
When you could be so very beautiful
When you are who you are
Yea when you are who you are
When you are who you are, yea
When you are who you are
When you are who you are

When you are who you are
When you are who you are
When you are who you are
