Skylar Grey - Everything I Need

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Born on the wrong side of the ocean
With all the tides against you
You never thought you'd be much good for anyone
But that's so far from the truth

{Pre-Chorus}
I know there's pain in your heart
And you're covered in scars
Wish you could see what I do

{Chorus}
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need

{Verse 2}
You can say I'm wrong
You can turn your back against me
But I am here to stay
(I am here to stay)
Like the sea
She keeps kissing the shoreline
No matter how many times he pushes her away

{Chorus}
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me

{Bridge}
And everything happens for a reason
It's all a blessing in disguise
I used to question who I was
But now I see
The answer's in your eyes

{Chorus}
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need

Holly Brook Hafermann, better known by her stage name, Skylar Grey, is an American singer/songwriter. She has worked with a countless number of mainstream artists on incredibly successful songs. Some of the most popular of these include Eminem’s “Love The Way You Lie,” Dr. Dre’s “I Need A Doctor,” and Nicki Minaj’s “Bed Of Lies.”

She has released three studio albums: Like Blood Like Honey, Don’t Look Down, and her most recent, Natural Causes, which produced four singles, and a feature from her frequent collaborating partner, Eminem.

Skylar gained 4 Grammy nominations for her work on “Love The Way You Lie” (2011) and “I Need a Doctor” (2012).

In an interview, Skylar explained the origin and meaning behind her artist name, saying:

Gray became my favorite color when I was going through a time in my life that was full of uncertainty, The color gray became a religion to me. Within the ‘undefined’ or ‘gray’ areas lies an infinite amount of possibilities. Believing in this helped me have hope for a positive shift in my future, as I was treading water in a sea of unknowns. Therefore, I started to surround myself with shades of gray. I threw out every piece of clothing in my closet that had color in it, and I moved to the Oregon coast, where the skies are gray and rainy, hence ‘Skylar.’

She even has a tattoo of the word “grey” written across her fingers, which further exemplifies her fondness of the color.
