Who I Am
Unveiling Life's Essence Through Kobe Jordan's 'Who I Am'
Lyrics
Oh my momma told me not to waste my time
Receiving advice from the speaker's mother not to waste time.
There's something out there worth giving my life
Expressing a belief that there is a meaningful purpose worth dedicating one's life to.
I haven't found it yet but I still try
Despite not finding the purpose yet, the speaker is determined and continues searching.
I wouldn't be who I am without you by my side
Acknowledging the importance of someone (possibly the mother) in shaping the speaker's identity.
You raised me well I know that times were tough
Recognizing that the speaker's upbringing, despite challenges, was well-done by the mentioned person.
You pulled me through no matter how rough
Gratitude for the support received, emphasizing resilience through tough times.
Things may not be the best between us now
Acknowledging that the current relationship may not be ideal, but expressing enduring love.
But I still love you so we'll work it out somehow
Committing to resolving issues and working through difficulties with the mentioned person.
I need you here more than ever now
Expressing a current need for the person's presence and support.
Hold me one more time before the sun sets now
Seeking comfort and connection before a metaphorical sunset, possibly symbolizing a difficult time.
Everything you did for me
Recognition and appreciation for everything the person has done for the speaker.
Has shown me how to make me be
Realization that the person's actions have influenced the speaker's self-discovery and development.
Just who I am
Affirmation of the speaker's self-identity, shaped by their experiences and upbringing.
You've shown who I am
Acknowledging that the person has played a significant role in revealing the speaker's true self.
I'll make it up to you I promise that
Promising to make amends for any shortcomings and pledging to provide what the person has lacked.
I'll give you everything you've never had
Commitment to giving the person everything they have not experienced before.
You can pass the torch let me take care of you
Offering to take on responsibilities and care for the person, allowing them to relax.
And no matter where I go I'll always think of you
Expressing a lasting connection and gratitude, regardless of the speaker's physical location.
I need you here more than ever now
Reiteration of the current need for the person's support and presence.
Hold me one more time before the sun sets now
Requesting emotional closeness before a symbolic ending or difficult period.
Everything you did for me
Reaffirming the impact of the person's actions on the speaker's development.
Has shown me how to make me be
Highlighting the influence of the person's actions on shaping the speaker's character.
Just who I am
Embracing and affirming the speaker's true identity as a result of the person's influence.
You've shown who I am
Acknowledging the role of the person in revealing and shaping the speaker's identity.
I'll never leave
Commitment to never leave, emphasizing loyalty and dedication.
No matter how bad it seems
Regardless of challenges, expressing determination to stay and support the person.
Life can get much worse
Acknowledging that life can be challenging, but expressing readiness to face difficulties.
No matter how bad it hurts
Highlighting the potential intensity of pain but expressing resilience.
Cause if I lose you
Stressing the fear and uncertainty of losing the person and its potential impact on the speaker.
I don't know what I'll do
Expressing the difficulty of imagining life without the person.
So I'll just keep holding on
Committing to holding on, despite challenges and uncertainties.
