Who Do You Think You Are
Kiana Ledé & Cautious Clay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's something bad in the balance
I'm staring into the darkness and I like what I see
There's a thin line between a sinner and a savior
Never once did I ever think it would be me
Dead in the eyes, cold in the heart
A kiss or a curse, sword or a scar
Don't you know that beauty can kill
I'm caught in between, two worlds apart
Devils and dreams, but do you know your heart?
Tell me, who do you think you are?
Sickening sweet or bad from the start
I'm caught in between, but do you know your heart?
Tell me, who do you think you are?
Blue light, glowing deep in the forest
I'm overcome with emotion pouring out of me
Fake smile, I can cut like a dagger
A happily ever after, but who knows where it leads?
Protect and defend, nobody wins after all
What's a war between friends when you're the one against me?
I'm caught in between (caught in between)
Two worlds apart (two worlds apart)
Devils and dreams, but do you know your heart?
Tell me, who do you think you are?
Sickening sweet or bad from the start
Devils and dreams, but do you know your heart
Who do you think you are?
Ah, ah
Who do you think you, who do you think you are?
Ah, ah
Tell me, who do you think you are?
The lyrics of Kiana Ledé and Cautious Clay's song "Who Do You Think You Are" explore themes of self-identity, duality, and emotional conflict. The first verse describes a sense of fascination with darkness and a realization that one can be both a sinner and a savior. The singer acknowledges their own internal conflicts, indicating that they never expected to find themselves in this position. The reference to beauty killing suggests that appearances can be deceiving and that one should not make judgments based solely on outward appearances.
The chorus delves deeper into the singer's inner conflict and their struggle with self-awareness. They feel caught between two different worlds, one representing their own dark desires and the other representing their dreams or ideals. The line "Devils and dreams, but do you know your heart?" questions the authenticity of their own intentions and asks if they truly know themselves. It also highlights the tension between the different aspects of their personality.
The second verse introduces a blue light in the forest, symbolizing a moment of clarity or self-reflection. The singer becomes overwhelmed by their emotions, with a fake smile that can cut like a dagger. This suggests that they may often hide their true feelings behind a facade. The mention of a happily ever after indicates a desire for a fulfilling outcome, but uncertainty about where their choices will lead.
The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the singer's ongoing struggle with their identity. They question the motives and intentions of both themselves and others, as they try to navigate complex relationships. The repeated line "Who do you think you are?" serves as a direct challenge to the singer and their introspection, urging them to confront and understand their true self.
Overall, "Who Do You Think You Are" explores the internal conflicts of self-identity, the struggle to understand one's own heart, and the desire to reconcile contradictory aspects of one's personality. The lyrics prompt listeners to reflect on their own sense of self and the importance of self-awareness in relationships and personal growth.
