Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse
On the back cover of this album is a personal treasureThis is my first and only self-portraitI drew it when I was three and a half and entitled it, "Me. I Am Mariah."Please don't judge me for such a simplistic titleCome on, I was only three and a half
It was a creative visualisation of how I saw myselfWith the purity of a child's heart before it was ever brokenI've kept this drawing private for so longBut because this album is a reflection of some of the peaks and valleys that have made me who I am todayI've decided to share it with those of you who actually careAnd have been here for me through it allI've been through a lot, but I've always known meI am Mariah
Along the way there have been a couple of nicknamesAnd I've inadvertently embodied many personasLately, they've been calling me, "The Elusive Chanteuse"
