I Will Overcome

Look what i have become
I’m closer to myself
Through the choices
That were wrong
I’m closer to myself
Through the choices
That were wrong

A rainbow needs the sun
But without a little rain
Nothing ever can be done
Without a little pain
Nothing ever can be done

I will rise and i will fall
I will fly and i will crawl
I’ll breathe it in and take it all
I’ll breathe it out and let it go
I will overcome
I will overcome

Like a diamond in a stone
It takes a little work
to become who you are
It takes a little time
to remember who you are

When you re naked to the bones
You’re freedom will be close
And the Truth won’t be far
You’re freedom will be close
and the Truth can’t be far

I will rise and i will fall
I will fly and i will crawl
I’ll breathe it in and take it all
I’ll breathe it out and let it go
And i will smile and i will cry
I’ll say hello’s and say goodby’s
There is darkness in the light
And sweet surrenders when you fight
I will overcome
I will overcome

Look what i have become
I’m closer to myself
Through the choices
That were wrong
I’m closer to myself
Through the choices
That were wrong
