Jon Batiste is one of history’s most brilliant, prolific, and accomplished musicians. Batiste studied and received both a B.A. and M.F.A. at the world-renowned Juilliard School in New York City. In 2020, he won an Academy Award for Best Original Score for the Disney/Pixar film SOUL, an honor he shared with fellow composers Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. He is the second black composer in history, after legendary jazz musician Herbie Hancock, to win an Academy Award for composition. Batiste’s latest studio album, WE ARE, was released in March 2021 to overwhelming critical acclaim. Subsequently, he was nominated for eleven Grammys across seven different categories, a first in Grammy history. He went on to win five of those Grammys, including Album of the Year.
LYRICS:
Lonely one
Out there on and eagles' wings
You’re bringing something they can’t bring
And singing something they can’t sing
I know it’s lonely when you’re saying something they ain’t heard
Don’t want to share a mumbling word
But just follow me and we will learn
It's tough but you can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio
That’s just who I am that’s just my video
That’s just who I, I, I am I, I, I can’t pretend ‘cause I know
You can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio (radio)
That’s just who I am that’s just my video
Wherever you are, oh Lord
You can only be who you are
You can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio
That’s just who I am that’s just my video
That’s just who I, I, I am I, I, I can’t pretend ‘cause I know
You can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio
That’s just who I am that’s just my video
Wherever you are, oh Lord
You can only be who you are
Who you are
You can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio
That’s just who I am that’s just my video
That’s just who I, I, I am I, I, I can’t pretend ‘cause I know
You can only be who you are
That’s just who I am that’s just my radio (radio)
