They 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 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 Without any shame
It might have been a rough way to it And a hard place 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 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
And there's nothing I can't rise above
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 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) woman's deserving Whatever it is I can take it Whatever it takes I'm gonna make it yeah
And finally I can feel without fearing Cry without the pain Stand up 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 no doubt Yeah, I know who I am
