"No More, No Less"

"Let me introduce myself to you. This is who I am, no more, no less."

This is the opening line of the chorus of this upbeat song by Mercyme. This song is also the theme song for my upcoming album, "Made To Worship" which is out on October 29, 2013, the same day that one year ago, I joined the greatest team ever, Team World Vision! I chose this song because I am returning with a new name and a new "label." My old name was Miss Adoration. I am now Amy Foto. My old "label" was TH Records, which are the initials of my old youth pastor who helped me get my first album out. My new "label" is Adoration Records, which is my personal label that I created to produce this album.

Back to the song. the artist is introducing himself to the world. He doesn't want to hide anything, he doesn't want to be something he isn't. He wants to be real with everyone. It's about the change. He is a blessed man because of God. At the end, he hopes that people have seen the heart that has been beating. He is a man trying to get home, to heaven. Read the lyrics and go out and introduce yourself to the world!

I'm not trying to hide anything
I wear it on my sleeve
I wear it on my sleeve
I'm not trying to be something I'm not
This is all I've got
This is all I've got
I'm not trying to re-invent the wheel
Just trying to be real
Trying to be real
I'm not trying to say follow me
I'm not the one who leads
I'm not the one who leads

Let me introduce myself to you
This is who I am
No more, no less
I am just a man who understands
Because of You I'm blessed
No more, no less

I'm not trying to prove anything
It's all about the change
It's all about the change

Let me introduce myself to you
This is who I am
No more, no less
I am just a man who understands
Because of You I'm blessed
No more, no less
Let me introduce myself to you
This is who I am
No more, no less
I am just a man who understands
Because of You I'm blessed
Nothing more and nothing less.

I hope you stare just long enough to see
The heart that's beating here inside of me
Beyond all the things you may think you know
I'm just a kid trying to make it home, that's it
No more, no less
Lord, I want to go home
Nothing more, nothing less
