About I Am

"I Am" is a song by British singer and songwriter Leona Lewis from her fifth studio album, I Am (2015). The song was written by Lewis, Toby Gad and Eg White, with Gad and White producing it. Lyrically, "I Am" is about the feelings and emotions experienced by Lewis following her departure from her former record label Syco and its boss, Simon Cowell. It is a dance-influenced track which makes use of strings, piano and drums as part of its instrumentation. Its composition garnered comparisons to singers Avril Lavigne and Massive Attack. Island released "I Am" on 17 July 2015 as the lead single for the United Kingdom, but it is the second single to be released from the album overall. Remixes by Fastlane and DEVolution were also released. The track garnered a positive response from music critics, many of whom praised Lewis' strong and emotive vocal performance and described it as a standout on the album. Lewis has performed the song live on The National Lottery: In It to Win It and at the BBC's Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park festival. more »

I thought the moment I was leaving
Barely breathing
I fall to pieces, couldn't face this
Why would I be leaving?
I was believing
It's you and me against the world

Not saying I was afraid of you
Won't put the blame on you
But I won't change for you
Just when you thought you dropped me
I gotta drop the news, I'm still existing
I'm still here

I am, with or without you
I am, breathing without you
I am, somebody without you
I am, I am
I am, free without you
I am, stronger without you
Thought I would never rise again, but I am, I am

First steps that I was making
On this new planet
Never done it, found all I wanted
The world was so forgiving
Open-hearted, warm and loving, amazing

I never once regretted it
And I'll break my bread
I'm revealed again
All of the mistakes that I made
Finally led the way
To a better place

I am, with or without you
I am, breathing without you
I am, somebody without you
I am, I am
I am, free without you
I am, stronger without you
Thought I would never rise again
But I am, I am

First my remedy, now my poison, oh
Won't get down to love until I'm afraid to live
Ooh yeah

I am, with or without you
I am, stronger without you
Thought I would never rise again
But I am, I am

I am me, oh
Oh, oh
