“The Way I Am”是Charlie自己說最貼近他的一首歌,是最私密的內心話。
歌詞講的是他從一開始的默默無聞到打出知名度之後一直到現在這段期間的壓力,
他要面對外界的媒體、粉絲、酸民,
在這麼多雙眼睛的關注下,就連簡單的生活都變得複雜。
因此,
Charlie寫出了這首歌,
告訴大家,
不管你們怎麼看我,
that's just the way I am,
我就是我。
聽完這首歌,
又看完了歌詞,
Lillian真的是感觸良深;
其實不只是明星,
就連我們一般人要忠於自我也沒那麼簡單。
我們雖然沒有那麼多密切的關注,
但是因為發達的社群媒體,
我們總是跟隨著潮流,
跟著身邊的同事、
同學一起流行,
或是把自己真實的一面藏起來,
抑或是不想接受自己的樣貌,
最後失去自己原本的樣子。
現在的我們,
有辦法看著身邊的人們,
或是,
鏡中的自己,
也說一句
“that's just the way I am”嗎?
[Verse 1]
Yeah, maybe I'ma get a little anxious
或許我看起來有點神經質
Maybe I'ma get a little shy
或許我也有點沉默
'Cause everybody's trying to be famous
因為當所有的人都只想出名
And I'm just trying to find a place to hide (oh)
而我就只想找個地方躲起來
All I wanna do is just hold somebody
我希望可以好好的守著一個人
But no one ever wants to get to know somebody
但是沒有人真的想要去理解別人
I don't even know how to explain this
我甚至不曉得該怎麼解釋這情形
I don't even think I'm gonna try
我甚至也不想試著去釐清

Maybe I'ma get a little nervous

Maybe I don't go out anymore (oh)

Feelin' like I really don't deserve this (-serve this)
我覺得我不值得這樣的生活
Life ain't nothing like it was before (ain't nothing like before)
過去和現在的日子已大大的不同
'Cause all I wanna do is just hold somebody
我想要的就是好好的去愛
But no one ever wants to get to know somebody
