LYRICS:

[Intro]
I lost it all, my friends, my loved ones
But in life there's always a chance to grow
From the struggle, from the pain, from the realness
Here's my story, Lloyd

[Verse 1]
Hey world, yeah I know it's been a while
Thought I'd come around to let you know what's up now
No album lately so my money's kinda up-down
I still been taking care my mama and them somehow
Disappeared from the scene and left my old team
Had to find a new approach to an old dream
And it's not to take a shot at my old team
I just want you to see

[Chorus]
This is me so please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
I'm just doing everything that I can
Cause all I wanna be is true
So please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
Cause there's no me without you
And all I wanna be is true

[Verse 2]
Apologies if I ever let you down
But so much shit done happen that it's hard to talk about
So many lawsuits that my lawyer said don't talk about it
Just had to breathe, keep it cool 'til I can walk up out it
Came home helped my sister raise a child
Kinda hurt me cause I could of had my own now
Lost my baby damn it's really hitting home now
I just had to learn

[Chorus]
This is me so please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
I'm just doing everything that I can
Cause all I wanna be is true
So please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
Cause there's no me without you
And all I wanna be is true

[Bridge]
I look up to the sky, Lord why do I cry
When no one is looking, is the blame for this pain
Even caused by the shame of this fame I've been given
My pride don't cause me to hide my true feelings
Cause I can only be real
Cause I can only be real

[Chorus]
This is me so please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
I'm just doing everything that I can
Cause all I wanna be is true
So please accept me for who I am
And please accept me for what I do
Cause there's no me without you
And all I wanna be is true
Alright, alright
And all I wanna be is true
Alright
And all I wanna be is true
And all I wanna be is true
Alright
And all I wanna be is true

The music video is narrative based and it shows the artist Lloyd who speaks through his personal issues at the begin with spoken words of " I lost it all my friends, but in life their is always a chance to grow from the pain and from the struggle." i took inspiration from his music video, is that I like the soulful vibe in video, and that he speaking to the world through his music video.

Locations: In the music video he shows quick glimpse of different locations, from outside under a tunnel to the front of the yard to a open field to an empty room. 

Camera: he uses wide shot of him in an open field and in an empty room, this annotate his problems. He uses close up, mid shots when he goes in personal about what he is going through. 

Mise en scene- all white, denim, a hat,- rebirth, brand new, different location more darker colours black hat brown jumper, denim

 It begins an establishing shot of a city in america then it leads to a side close up of the artist, speaking about absence in the music career. In the music video the lightening is dark this could represent his feelings that he is going through before he started back his music.The whole of music video is shot in low light, and the video is shot in different locations, such as open field, inside a old building. During the video,and his narrative lyrics their is small throwback video clips of him explaining his issues.The music video it self, has retro look to it, making it seem old. In the music video their is low angles; this could be to sure him begging God for forgiveness; as further on the video its shows him with his two hands together and his head held high, saying 'please accept me for what I do'. In the music video there is lots of cutaway, which crosses from him being on the field, to being in the house, to throwing it back to when he was in debt and ripping envolopes. The cutaways brings all his issues that he is been through in to one concept; making it clear that he been through lots of issue.

Ideas that i will take from the music video, is the retro vibe look and the transitioning from older clips to modern day clips this could annotate the new beginning the change in the person life.
