Story Behind The Song
This song came through at a crucial point in my life after i moved across the country away from my family, was in a new relationship and struggling to know myself...to break free of the tendencies to be a people pleaser, especially in relationships and be strong and proud of who i am...so i wrote a song to declare this to the universe and affirm what i had grown to know about myself and my worth! A few years later, after i met my now husband, he wrote a verse to interact with me on this song, as a balance and to affirm that he sees me and cherishes our relationship...
Song Description
A timeless song about self-discovery, a girl journeying into nature to find herself and declaring to the world "this is who i am!" Not needing to live to please others, she finally realizes her worth...and her make lover comes in at the end to reflect- "I see you Clearly.."...this song is a favorite of many people who deeply relate to the sentiments expressed.

Lyrics
New moon, stars alive and twinkling /
Walking a path, winding down to the canyon /
Where healing waters cleanse my soul /
I find an opening down by the water's edge /
Leading me closer and closer to my goal /
Ahh... /
Pre-Chorus
When anger rises /
Sick and tired of compromising me /
For everyone else to be happy /
What about me? /
What about me? /
This is who I am /
Chorus
This is who I am /
Look at me now /
I don't need to please you /
I stand here rooted like the trees do /
Foundation so strong /
I am free to rise /
Look into my eyes... /
This is who I am /
Wooo...
Aradhana Verse
Now I stand up for what I believe is truth /
I ring forth a conscious vibration teach it to the youth /
I am done with fantasy life /
I'm living here /
And now using my voice to call on the light /
I call on the light /
Ahh...
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
TruthI Verse
I see you clearly /
I hold you dearly /
I reflect the love and light inside you /
Like a mirror be /
When you're near me /
I'm nearly transcendental in my mental states /
As we elevate, so full of grace /
We feel the heavens interface /
I celebrate who you are /
Support your growth /
When we meditate, we make love in our hearts /
And start to levitate /
Arch into the waves /
Don't ever wait /
Passions pulsing through meridians /
In dreams awake to this beautiful moment /
That we're living in /
You by my side /
We take a ride across the great divide /
Between a state of separation /
And a place that's wholly unified /
I push aside hesitation /
Know you're waiting for my kiss /
A taste of bliss /
Shake your hips, and all the other lovely prerequisites /
I wish the world could know /
Love exists like this /
Immaculate /
And each of us accountable /
For how and when we practice it /
Lavish lips sparkle /
In the artful dance of ecstasy /
This energy collects in me /
And spirals 'til we set it free /
Chorus
