I like this album cover, I think it captures the airy, transient energy of the song well.
The most vivid memory I have for this song is coming up with the chorus instantly. Right after that I struggled to actually sing it. I pushed my range for this, but it is such a deeply heartfelt tune.
Do you wanna be?
If it’s really what you want, then tell me what you need
It ain’t no price they could put on it,
Cuz I really want it, if you really want it
Could you really be the one for me?
I have struggled in the past with feelings of self worth and being lost or left behind in relationships. This song is a floating, wishful collection of emotions. I tried to take grief and transmute it into hope and a call to action. There is a bit of disbelief behind the words in the chorus, as if I don’t really believe someone could want me in that way.
So I have to ask,
Do you wanna be?
