Know My Name - Being As An Ocean

I’ve finally found my place, somewhere I feel sane

I won’t wait on your approval

Now you know, now you know my name

Disembodied voices circle me

Rest is absent as I lay down to sleep

My eyes are wide and I can’t help but dream

Creation bred from chaos, the static on the screen

Whispers at my back won’t lead the way

Invoking vibrations true release, find me where the passion meets the pain

Breathing life, reason for being

I’ve finally found my place, somewhere I feel sane

I won’t wait for your opinion, I just hope you feel the same

I’ll finally show my face, somewhere I feel safe

I won’t wait on your approval

Now you know, now you know my name

Now you know my name

How dare you tell me how to make my art, what you deem is real or what comes

from the heart?

How dare you tell me what to think and feel, when I’ve traveled through hell to

eventually heal?

Whispers at my back won’t lead the way

I won’t cower at the tides of life

Find me where the passion meets the pain

I’ll hold fast take my own advice

I’ve finally found my place, somewhere I feel sane

I won’t wait for your opinion, I just hope you feel the same

I’ll finally show my face, somewhere I feel safe

I won’t wait on your approval

Now you know, now you know my name

I won’t wait to ask permission to live out my life’s passion

I won’t abide an atrophied soul, withered from inaction

Bottled up inside, no more places to hide

I didn’t realize I was biding time

I’ve finally found my place, somewhere I feel sane

I won’t wait for your opinion, I just hope you feel the same

I’ll finally show my face, somewhere I feel safe

I won’t wait on your approval

Now you know, now you know my name

Now you know my name
