Discover the story of the song > I Am Light – India.Arie

The song is about the protagonist defining herself through her own light, rather than what other people think of her or the mistakes she has made. She declares that she is not defined by her family or the negative voices in her head, nor by her past failures or the dreams she never accomplished. She emphasizes that she is not even defined by her physical appearance or background, but rather by the light that exists inside her, making her a piece of divinity and a star.
