Get the Sheet Music License This Song

Scott Stapp sings on "Who I Am" of how his overbearing ego fed his self-destructive behavior during the period when Creed became one of the most successful bands in America. On this track, he confronts his ego and other negative forces.
Stapp's son Jagger, for whom he wrote "With Arms Wide Open," is now a musician himself and he wrote the opening lines for this song.
