Chorus / Description : The song Who You Are by Jordan Smith is about staying true to oneself and not getting lost in the pressures of the world. While the lyrics don't have direct biblical references, the message aligns with biblical principles of being authentic and not conforming to the world (Romans 12:2). It encourages listeners to embrace their true identity and not let external factors define them.
I stare at my reflection in the mirror
Why am I doing this to myself?
Losing my mind on a tiny error
Oh, I nearly left the real me on the shelf
No, no, no, no
Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars
But tears don't mean you're losing
Everybody's bruising
Just be true to who you are
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing
It's okay not to be okay
Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart
Tears don't mean you're losing
Everybody's bruising
Just be true to who you are
The more I try the less is working
'Cause everything inside me screams
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing
It's okay not to be okay
Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart
But tears don't mean you're losing
Everybody's bruising
Just be true to who you are
Yes, no, egos, fake shows, like boom
Just go and leave me alone
Real talk, real life, good luck, good night
With a smile, that's my home, that's my home
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, whoa
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing
It's okay not to be okay
Sometimes it's hard, but just follow your heart
Tears don't mean you're losing
Everybody's bruising
Just be true to who you are, yeah
