Who I Am (Putri's Version) (feat. Putri Ariani)

Alan Walker's collaboration with Putri Ariani in 'Who I Am (Putri's Version)' is a powerful anthem of self-acceptance and individuality. The song's lyrics convey a strong message about embracing one's true self, regardless of societal expectations or pressures. The opening lines in Arabic, 'La takun hadha wala dhak' (Don't be this or that), set the tone for the song's theme of rejecting conformity. The artists emphasize the importance of making one's own choices and learning from personal mistakes, rather than adhering to rules imposed by others.

The chorus, 'Save all your tears, you don't wanna waste them on me,' highlights the resilience and self-assurance of the narrator. They refuse to be pitied or judged for not fitting into the conventional mold. Instead, they celebrate their uniqueness with the line, 'This is just the way that I am.' The imagery of having their 'head in the clouds' suggests a dreamer who is unapologetically different and comfortable with their identity. This sentiment is further reinforced by the declaration, 'I do not fit into the crowd,' which underscores the narrator's pride in their individuality.

The song also touches on themes of companionship and support, as seen in the lines, 'And when you dive into the blue, I'll be right next to you.' This suggests a deep bond and unwavering support for a loved one, regardless of the challenges they face. The repeated phrase, 'Cause all that you go through, I'm with you,' serves as a reminder that true connection transcends societal norms and expectations. Overall, 'Who I Am (Putri's Version)' is a celebration of self-discovery, resilience, and the power of authentic relationships.
