SCHOOL DAZE: I Can Only Be Me

School Daze, I Can Only Be Me
1988

Especial mención requiere esta película drama-musical escrita y dirigida en el año 1988 por un buen conocido y amigo de Stevie, Spike Lee. La trama transcurre en el sur Estados Unidos, donde dos grupos de estudiantes que tienen ideas diferentes, no son capaces de aceptar la de su oponente. Dentro de la banda sonora de School Daze, aparte de labores de producción, Stevie Wonder compone "I Can Only Be Me" para que un habitual en sus giras, Keith John, ponga voz a esta estremecedora canción.
Butterflies begin
From having been another
As a child is born
From being in a mother's womb
But how many times have you
wished you were some other
someone than who you are

Yet who's to say
If all were uncovered
You will like what you see
You can only be you
As I can only be me

Flowers cannot bloom
Until it is their season
As we would not be here
unless it was our destiny
But how many times have you
wished to be in spaces
Time places than what you were
Yet who's to say with unfamiliar
faces You could anymore be
Loving you that you see
You can only be you
As I can only be
Me

I can only be me
