I AM
Die Happy feat. Andreas Bourani Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm as bad as it can get and good as it can be
Sometimes I'm a million colors, sometimes I'm black and white
I am all extremes
Try to figure me out, you never can
There's so many things I am
I am special
I am wonderful, and powerful, unstoppable
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
I'm someone filled with self-belief, I'm haunted by self-doubt
I've got all the answers, I've got nothing figured out
I like to be by myself, I hate to be alone
I'm up and I am down
But that's part of the thrill, part of the plan
Part of all of the things I am
I am special
I am beautiful
I am wonderful, and powerful, unstoppable
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
I'm a million contradictions
Sometimes I make no sense
Sometimes I'm perfect, sometimes I'm a mess
Sometimes I'm not sure who I am
But I am special
I am beautiful
I am wonderful, and powerful, unstoppable
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
I am special
I am beautiful
I am wonderful, and powerful, unstoppable
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
Of all the things I am
Sometimes I'm miserable
Sometimes I'm pitiful
But that's so typical of all the things I am
Of all the things I am
The song "I Am" by Die Happy is a resonating self-reflection that encourages one to embrace all aspects of themselves, even the negative ones. The song conveys that human beings are complex beings who embody both negative and positive qualities in equal measure. In the opening lines, the singer describes herself as an "angel," a "devil," and "sometimes in between." This line establishes the theme of this song - that people are not one-dimensional but multifaceted beings.
Throughout the song, Die Happy emphasizes the contradictory elements that make up an individual. The singer says, "Sometimes I'm a million colors, sometimes I'm black and white, I am all extremes." These words acknowledge that people are not consistent in their behavior and can be different things at different times. The chorus, which is repeated several times, reinforces the idea that it's okay to be imperfect and that every part of oneself is worth embracing. The lines "I am special, I am beautiful, I am wonderful, and powerful, unstoppable" give an affirmation that everyone should internalize.
In essence, Die Happy's "I Am" is a song about accepting oneself wholly, both the good and the bad, the happy and the miserable. This song provides the message that life is not perfect and that it's okay not to be always happy. "I Am" encourages listeners to embrace the imperfections and complexities that define them as individuals.l
