All the tiny little breaks
But somewhere out beyond all reason
You keep on giving what it takes
I never thought of running
I was busy carrying the load
Had the strength enough to take it
But not enough to let it go
It's a long time coming down a broken road
[Chorus:]
And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Without any shame
It might have been a rough way to learn it
And a hard place to land
But the one thing I'm sure of now
Is I know who I am
Now if somebody would have told me
There was a better place to be
In my quiet desperation
It was too hard to believe
I guess you gotta go the distance
To know just when enough's, enough
Won't let nobody take it from me
Cause I know what I'm made of
And there's nothing I can't rise above
[Chorus:]
And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Without any shame
It might have been a rough way to learn it
And a hard place to land
But the one thing I'm sure of now
Is I know who I am
(I am) A woman who's worthy
(I am) A woman's deserving
Whatever it is I can take it
Whatever it takes I'm gonna make it yeah
[Chorus:]
And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Without any shame
It might have been a rough way to learn it
And a hard place to land
But the one thing I'm sure of now
Oh, and I absolutely have no doubt
Yeah, I know who I am
Yeah, I know who I am
I Know
They say you never see it coming All the tiny little breaks But somewhere out beyond all reason You keep on giving what it takes I never thought of running I was busy carrying the load Had the strength enough to take it But not enough to let it go It's a long time coming down a broken road [Chorus:] And finally I can feel without fearing Cry without the pain Stand up and love me Without any shame It might have been a rough way to learn it And a hard place to land But the one thing I'm sure of now Is I know who I am Now if somebody would have told me There was a better place to be In my quiet desperation It was too hard to believe I guess you gotta go the distance To know just when enough's, enough Won't let nobody take it from me Cause I know what I'm made of And there's nothing I can't rise above [Chorus:] And finally I can feel without fearing Cry without the pain Stand up and love me Without any shame It might have been a rough way to learn it And a hard place to land But the one thing I'm sure of now Is I know who I am (I am) A woman who's worthy (I am) A woman's deserving Whatever it is I can take it Whatever it takes I'm gonna make it yeah [Chorus:] And finally I can feel without fearing Cry without the pain Stand up and love me Without any shame It might have been a rough way to learn it And a hard place to land But the one thing I'm sure of now Oh, and I absolutely have no doubt Yeah, I know who I am Yeah, I know who I am I Know Explain Request ×
