TOLU - More Lyrics

When you look at me what do you see
Testaments of who I used to be
The lines on my face
Scars you can trace

My story may be one of strife and struggle
Hurt and shame, loss and misery
But watch me as I break out of those shackles
Free to be wholly me

Cause I am more than what you see
I am more than a history
Of pain and sorrow
Because tomorrow
I'm gonna rise up higher
My today is better
Than it was just yesterday
I'm shining brighter every day

My lines are a map of time
Carrying wisdom, rhythm, a rhyme
My scars are the signs of victory
Battles I've fought and won
I am rewriting my story
My future bright as the sun
More than a Survivor
I'm a Victor

I am more than what you see
I am more than a history
Of pain and sorrow
Because tomorrow
I'm gonna rise up higher
My today is better
Than it was just yesterday
I'm shining brighter every day

Take a look at me
Take a look at me
Come closer, what do you see?

Take a look at me
Take a look at me
Come closer, what do you see?

Take a look at me
Take a look at me
Come closer. Do you see I'm more?
I am more!

I am more than what you see
I am more than a history
Of pain and sorrow
Because tomorrow
I'm gonna rise up higher
My today is better
Than it was just yesterday
I'm shining brighter every day

I'm shining brighter every day
I'm getting stronger every day
My coast is larger every day

I am more
I am more
I am more
