Who I Am
Andrews Jessica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And never see the seven wonders
That'll be alright
If I don't make it to the big leagues
If I never win a Grammy
I'm gonna be just fine
'Cause I know exactly who I am
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends who love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
So when I make big mistake
When I fall flat on my face
I know I'll be alright
Should my tender heart be broken
I will cry those teardrops knowin'
I will be just fine
'Cause nothin' changes who I am
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends who love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
I'm a saint and I'm a sinner
I'm a loser, I'm a winner
I'm am steady and unstable
I am young but I'm able
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends who love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
I am Rosemary's granddaughter
The spitting image of my father
And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends who love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am
The song "Who I Am" by Jessica Andrews is an ode to self-acceptance and identity. Andrews sings about how she doesn't need external validation or accolades to feel complete. The lyrics emphasize that even if Andrews' dreams of seeing the Seven Wonders of the World or winning a Grammy never come true, she will be just fine because she knows who she is. Andrews then goes on to list different parts of her identity, such as being the granddaughter of Rosemary, looking like her father, and having a loving mother. She acknowledges that she has flaws and makes mistakes, but those are all part of who she is. The chorus reinforces the message that nothing can change Andrews' true identity.

I am! I keep coming back to it! It's a beautiful and meaningful song! It's also the theme song of the remarkable Sue Thomas F. B. Eye tv show.

Me i am fighting depression and this is one song I go to
@derekanderson7282
I am, and have done so probably a dozen times this year, not to mention the hundreds of times in the last decade.
While that may be due to the fact that what is today's standard for 'music' hurts those with a sense of sound and clarity of listening purpose, some of us like to hear and understand lyrics that tell a story and make sense without all the synthesized garbage that passes as 'music' these days.

My mother Rosemary died at the young age of 39 from cancer. I was her only daughter out of 4 children. I was 20 at that time. Now I have a daughter and I play this song for her all the time and will be playing it at my daughter's Quinceanera in a few weeks during a slide show. Everyone will definitely be crying especially me. Thank you for this beautiful song!
