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
Gil Scott-Heron (1949-2011) was an American poet, musician, and activist widely considered a pioneer of the hip hop movement. Born in Chicago, Heron began his career as a spoken word artist in the 1960s, blending poetry and jazz music to create a new genre that fused elements of blues, funk, and soul. His music often carried a strong political message, addressing issues such as racism, poverty, and social oppression. Heron is particularly known for his song "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised", which became an anthem against television propaganda and manipulation.
