\\ The task \\
This song was written within my very first Camp Around and was the result of my second challenge. My task was:
"A lot of artists want to please people. Show us that you want exactly the opposite."
It is difficult to solve such a task when the other participants of your Camp Around are your best friends. So I decided not to take the task literally but to describe exactly this situation - being a people pleaser, being aware of it and getting caught up in it.
\\ Will and ideas \\
It is commonplace for people to try to make others happy against their will and ideas in order to please them. They always have a smile on their face, which is not meant. And even if you are aware of being a People Pleaser, it usually doesn't change anything. As long as the inner voice which demands you to use self-confidence and healthy egoism is not trained, there is no escape. It's not only us artists. People Pleaser can be found in every sector.
With my song I have tried to show this conflict within a People Pleaser.

People please
People please
Be gentle with me
If you do so I will follow your every move
People do
People do
So random things with me
Powerling low
Automation
Going la la la

We swallow it

People don’t

Don`t you see?
I am my own person
Igor my own feed
People please

I want you to leave it alone
Can`t you see that is not what I wanna achieve
Bla bla bla bla
