I Know Who I Am Lyrics

They say you never see it coming
All the tiny little breaks
But somewhere out beyond no reason
You keep on giving what it takes

I never thought of running
I was busy carrying a 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

And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Or without any shame

It might have been a rough way learning
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 belief

I guess you gotta know the distance
So when you know enough's enough
Now let nobody take it from me
'Cause I know what I'm made of

And there's nothing I can rise above

And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Or without any shame

It might have been a rough way learning
And a hard place to land
But the one thing I'm sure of now
Is I know who I am

A woman who's more than I am
A woman's deserving whatever it is
I can take it whatever it takes
I can make it, yeah

And finally I can feel without fearing
Cry without the pain
Stand up and love me
Or without any shame

It might have been a rough way learning
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
