Who I Am

I get up I get down It's the rhythm of my battle drum I get up I get down I'mma struggle 'til the day is done I get up I get down It's the rhythm of my battle drum I get up I get down I'mma struggle 'til the day is done I get up I get down It's the rhythm of my battle drum I get up I get down I'mma struggle 'til the day is done Every voice telling me that I am thinking wrong Change ya tune change ya chord sing that other song Little brother turned into an insecure man Any type of criticism make me into lesser than Never believed I could be right or be me What is me They just tell me what I'm s'pposed to be Gotta be a brand but I never really owned it for myself Now I'm nebulous I'm tired of it this stress my mental health see my chaos and I know I gotta speak into it I see my apathy I know I gotta battle ruthless I know my Father look at me and He is well pleased the problem is that I aint good enough for me maybe the best thing for me is You I know the pain will show the truth maybe I am beautiful to You I just want to be myself I just want to be myself today Wanna know just who I am I need you to help me understand Who I am is beloved Who I am is more than what I’ve done Who I am is worthy of some lovin Who I am has really just begun Who I am is a treasure Who I am is royalty in blood Who I am is a warrior for the kingdom Who I am has really just begun Nobody will know that I’m speaking of my sweat and blood Only hear they talk of blessings coming down above When my praises go up the blessing come down But my blessing is to keep me low to the ground The blessing is needing more love than I ever knew The blessing is knowing there’s nothing I can really do The blessing is pain adversity my own addiction Cause if I didn’t cry in need then would I really listen The blessing is losing illusion of my control The blessing is being betrayed and you bleed slow The blessing is to feel the discipline of better love There's better love than self love lovin' from the One The only One who can take all this craziness The only Father good enough for all the fatherless I know that my pain it clarifies the truth that maybe I am beautiful to You I just want to be myself I just want to be myself today Wanna know just who I am I need you to help me understand Who I am is beloved Who I am is more than what I’ve done Who I am is worthy of some lovin Who I am has really just begun Who I am is a treasure Who I am is royalty in blood Who I am is a warrior for the kingdom Who I am has really just begun Who I am has really just begun Who I am has really just begun
