My new single is about the vulnerability which comes with the intensity of love and desire for another. I have pushed my limits as an artist and producer on this new single experimenting both musically and lyrically. Originally written in 2016, I first produced and released it as the song “Naked” in 2018, but felt that version was too glossy. After revisiting the track this year, I realized that the original song’s raw qualities should be brought back.

“I Feel Naked”
Lyrics By Renee Asteria Penaloza and Patrick Johnson
What do you see when you look at me
It burns me your eyes oh I, I feel naked
What do you see
It’s taken over me gave control away cancel plans today
I want you right now
I need to feel the bass of your heart thumping
Wrap me all around
Breathe you in deep and feel the wetness of your sweat
Hit me I’m bound
To your body, you free my soul, swim in your sea
Please let me drown
What do you see when you look at me?
It burns me your eyes, oh I, I feel naked
What do you see (What do you see)
What do you see when you look at me?
It burns me your eyes, oh I, I feel naked
What do you see (do you see through me)?
Run, run with me set me free then take me, pin me down
Our bodies weave twisted in sheets you taste so sweet
Saying my name out loud
Gently let me lead slow and deep
Let me show you how
To love and take hold of my heart my taste my smell
My sight my sound
What do you see when you look at me?
It burns me your eyes, oh I, I feel naked
What do you see (What do you see)?
Why do you fear to get hooked on me?
It burns me, your lies, oh I can’t take it
Why do you fear
To fall for real
A fiend for your kiss, caught up in your bliss, lost in your abyss, I’ve fallen for you
No one can melt me or put me at peace quite like you can do
Move me soothe me, free me, feel me
Underneath we know that this is true
So gimme all of you gimme all of you
Gimme Gimme Gimme
What do you see when you look at me?
It burns me your eyes, oh I, I feel naked
What do you see (What do you see)?
Why do you fear to get hooked on me?
It burns me, your lies, oh I can’t take it
Why do you fear
To fall for real
To fall for real
What do you see?
I feel naked
What do you see?
I feel naked
