I'm so far from who I've been,
Been here and there and back again,
Felt the need to give up or just give in,
And go back to my remember whens.

I'm more than the sum of my parts,
Made of strength, hope, and all heart,
And I'll always finish what I start,
And in life I'll play out my part.

So who are you to tell me,
I'm not who I should be,
I'm not some plastic barbie,
On display to make you happy.

I am battles I have overcome,
I am all that and then some,
I march to the beat of a different drum,
And that's who I am.
I'm potential yet to be realized,
I'm success after a thousand tries,
I am more than can be seen with eyes,
And that's who I am,
Who I am.

I'm so much more than past mistakes,
And I reach for my dreams after I wake,
There are no chances I will not take,
I am stronger due to past heart breaks.

I'm so much older than my age,
And my life's more than words on a page,
Years removed from living within my cage,
And I'm winning all the wars I wage.

So who are you to tell me,
I'm not who I should be,
I'm not some plastic barbie,
On display to make you happy.

I am battles I have overcome,
I am all that and then some,
I march to the beat of a different drum,
And that's who I am.
I'm potential yet to be realized,
I'm success after a thousand tries,
I am more than can be seen with eyes,
And that's who I am,
Who I am.

I'm a salvation story waiting to be told,
I've got all the love and hope that I can hold,
And what I've got makes me bold,
God's love for me, more precious than gold.

So who are you to tell me,
I'm not who I should be,
I'm not some plastic barbie,
On display to make you happy.
I am battles I have overcome,
I am all that and then some,
I march to the beat of a different drum,
And that's who I am.
I'm potential yet to be realized,
I'm success after a thousand tries,
I am more than can be seen with eyes,
And that's who I am,
Who I am.
