IDENTITY
(words and music by Eilidh Patterson)

Identity, I wanna find the real me
Been presenting a fake I.D.
Just hoping I’ll get by

Identity, all of humanity
Are asking as well as me
“Who am I?”

How do I begin to find myself
When all my dreams are sitting on the shelf?

Conformity, it’s easy as ABC
It sneaks up on you and me
All the time

Security, is all that the world can see
Just to play happy families
‘Til we die

There must be something better in this life
Than sacrificing living to survive

Identity, I’m living out the reality
Of everything that I do believe
For the first time

Identity, I’m finding out who I’m meant to be
And soaring high on these wings, I’m free
And I won’t run out of sky

There is something better in this life
Than sacrificing living to survive

Identity, all of humanity
Are asking as well as me
“Who am I?”
