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
