D.S.16 - I Am Lyrics

I am who I am
Can't take that away from me
I am who I am
Can't take that away from me
I am who I am
Can't take that away from me
I am who I am
Can't take that away from me

Being individual is a blessing
A gift I struggled with for some time
See, it's been a long journey to find my sound
And I think I got it but I got a ways to climb
Now I'm not perfect by any means
Perfection only comes from the One above
And I admit I been questioning the true meaning of God
If He's real, if He's love
Cause the mistakes that I made messed with my mental
So I asked the Lord to please take control
Cleaned me up good and set me
On the right path to rescue my poor tainted soul
Now I'm not a singer but I'm using my voice
To show that the dark turn to light
The devil ain't gon keep me in obscurity
It's time for me to live a new life

Cause I'm a mess, I've been hurt, times before
Done some dirt I'm not proud of, of course (Don't we all?)
But forgiveness is truly a process of learning
To love myself again to restore to show that I

I am who I am
Can't take that away from me
I am who I am
Can't take that away from me
I am who I am
That's what my God made me

You made me who I am
You can't take that away from me

On the cross Jesus, the life You gave
Resurrected 3 days, my debts are paid
You came to clean up the mess I made
Now I know you're the one who saves
On the cross Jesus, the life You gave
Resurrected 3 days, my debts are paid
You came to clean up the mess I made
Now I know you're the one who saves
On the cross Jesus (Life You gave)
Resurrected 3 days (Debts are paid)
You came to clean up the mess (Mess I made)
Now I know you're (One who saves)
On the cross Jesus (Life You gave)
Resurrected 3 days (Debts are paid)
You came to clean up (Mess I made)
Now I know you're (One who saves)
On the cross You gave Your life (Life You gave)
You paid the debt so that I might live (Debts are paid)
You came to clean up (Mess I made)
Now I know you're (One who saves)

Life You gave
Debts are paid
Mess I made
One who saves
