"This Is Me" is a song performed by Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas. It is the fourth and final single from Camp Rock, a Disney Channel original movie, that is featured on the movie's soundtrack. It was released on June 6, 2008. A live version is also included on Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience.
Background[]
This is the first song that Demi Lovato's character, Mitchie Torres, sang in Camp Rock with Joe Jonas's character, Shane Gray. Mitchie wrote the song in the beginning of the movie, and was later heard (in an acoustic version on piano), but not seen, by Shane, who set out to search for the girl behind the amazing voice. After most people performed already in the "Final Jam" session, Mitchie sings the song (original version), and Shane saw her and sing part of the song he wrote, "Gotta Find You". The two songs are combined to make the original version, as featured on the Camp Rock soundtrack CD.
Demi Lovato also recorded a Spanish version of the song, titled "Lo Que Soy" (literally meaning What I Am), using the acoustic version music, released on the deluxe edition of Don't Forget and as a video featuring them singing the song while playing the piano.

Lyrics[]
[Verse 1: Demi]
I've always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I've got to say
But I have this dream
Right inside of me
I'm gonna let it show, it's time
To let you know
To let you know
[Chorus]
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
[Verse 2: Demi]
Do you know what it's like
To feel so in the dark
To dream about a life
Where you're the shining star
Even though it seems
Like it's too far away
I have to believe in myself
It's the only way
[Chorus]
This is real, This is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
[Bridge: Joe]
You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that I'm singin'
I need to find you
I gotta find you
You're the missin' piece I need
The song inside of me
I need to find you
I gotta find you
[Both]
[Chorus]
This is real, This is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
This is me... This is me..
[Joe Jonas]
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
You're the voice I hear
Inside my head
The reason that I'm singin' (I'm Singin')
[Both]
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me

Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Desde muy niña siempre actué
Con timidez
Con el miedo de decir
Todo de una vez
Tengo un sueño en mi
Que brillando esta
Lo dejare salir
Por fin tu sabras
[Chorus]
Lo que soy, es real
Soy exactamente la que debo ser hoy
Deja que la luz, brille en mi
Ahora si, se quien soy
No hay manera de ocultar
Lo que siempre he querido ser
Lo que soy, oh
Ehh, yeah
[Verse 2]
Sabes lo que es estar
En esta oscuridad
Con un sueño de alcanzar
Ser estrella y brillar
Si parece estar
Tan lejos hoy de aqui
Tengo que creer
En mi
Solo asi sabre
[Chorus 2]
Lo que soy, es real
Soy exactamente la que debo ser hoy
Deja que la luz, brille en mi
Ahora si, se quien soy
No hay manera de ocultar
Lo que siempre he querido ser
Lo que soy
Lo que soy
[Bridge]
Eres esa voz que habita en mi
Por eso estoy cantando
Quiero encontrarte
Voy a encontrarte
Eres lo que falta en mi
Cancion dentro de mi
Quiero encontrarte
Voy a encontrarte
[Chorus 3]
Lo que soy, es real
Soy exactamente la que debo ser hoy
Deja que la luz, brille en mi
No hay manera de ocultar
Lo que siempre he querido ser
Lo que soy
Lo que soy
[Outro]
Ahora si, se quien soy
No hay manera de ocultar
Lo que siempre he querido ser
Lo que soy
